while it's generally good to have a good native windows support from VM side,
on all major platforms. It is a lot of work. And no one is ready to
invest own time and energy
to make it work.
I started rewriting the windowing part of VM few years ago, but then
stopped. It is because
i have other things to do. And there is not much pressure from
community to have it anyways.
Seaside's camp even don't care about UI at all, since they run
headless images. So it is hard to:
- convince people that it needs to be done
- find people who can help with doing & testing that over multiple platforms
