You should thank Igor as he invented NB to make this possible
and convinced me that it is not a good idea to pollute the NB package
too much with platform specific API wrapping. So NB should be reduced to the FFI part
and anything other could be loaded on top.

Yes - that is the (long term) goal. Currently I wrap what I find, need or learn about
but try to keep it uniform. Later a common layer could/should sit on top
calling the underlying loaded platform package.
At least the "OS-XXX-Core" package should provide the minimum basic
facilities like opening a browser, run a new process or a deleting files, ...
You can load "OSWindows" and "OSOSX" additionally as well from the config browser
and compare them. They have the same package structure and some
classes are equally created.

As ever anybody is invited to help. I can not do this for all platforms
or one has to buy me a mac ;)
