WindowBuilder is impressive. I'm not sure how to clean room it though. If the concern is over the serialization of objects, has anyone considered SIXX for that? Doing that could give us something similar to the Dolphin ViewComposer but clearly of distinct origin. To the result, we could add some features of WindowBuilder (adding event handlers, etc.).

Can you modify manually the code generated for the UI Painter of VW? I´m not; I´m not mutant :)
The use of XAML or XUL is for portability. Exists many tools for design a GUI in XAML or XUL. The perfect GUI designer already exists. In all Smalltalks implementations, ALL, don´t exists a best GUI Builder of that tools. I don´t understand how we can think could create one easily, of the same level, if not exists in any Smalltalk, include commercials. The UI Painter and widgets of VW is pathetical... that is the example to copy???
Take a look at WindowBuilder Pro, is the most professional GUI Builder for Smalltalk. Cheers, Hernán
