I see that I have to surrender ;) Really, I have looked at wxhs again, 
and I could personally be convinced that whatever I would like to do is 
overlapping with the mid-level layer of wxhs, and since the attribute 
system coming from YAHU is easily extensible, I can always add a module 
if I want to add functionality.

But I don't see how that mid-level layer will differ in amount of work 
from what I was looking forward to do: won't we have to track wxwindow 
changes anyway?
