I saw that. Thought it was a proposal from people who have never done
real cross-platform portability, since they'd end up with apps that
look and feel wrong just about everywhere except where they were
written. This is because different platforms tend to have quite
different expectations for how an application behaves (both in how it
interacts with the user, and with the operating system). It is a very
difficult problem.
