Depends on what you mean by "essentially". Gecko renders HTML, Sophie
does not.
The Sophie UI (dialogs etc.) is specified using XUL - it describes how
big a dialog is, where to place which widgets, and how they should
look. These attributes come from cascading style sheets (CSS) so they
are properly inherited / overridden by sub-controls. But the actual
widgets such styled are regular Tweak widgets (though style support
was added). You could use the same framework to style a Morphic UI.
