I certainly wish to leverage AriethaFenestri, in general terms, perhaps wrappering. My intention is for a framework to leverage these "experiments" in a general way as a means to integerate (with fallback for platforms that are unable to access these low-level implementaions).
These are just ideas at the moment, and not explictly tied to my day-to-day work with using Squeak to implement business solutions. Just thinking ahead...

No support yet for Morphic tho.
Actually, no support for any particular stuff; the remit was to make the vm able to support multiple windows and to provide the basic api to create, manipulate, manage and draw on host windows. I'm amazed and horrified that after years of complaints about Squeak not having this ability *nobody* has bothered to make use of the Ffenestri stuff after over 3 years.
