I'm glad you brought up GTK+. Of all the alternatives you mentioned,
it seems to me the most likely to attract long-term cross-platform
support by lots of developers (GNOME, Nautilus and Sun Microsystems
seem like a tough trio to beat on this score). Thus, GTK+ may be be
the safest alternative in terms of being least likely to strand us N
years down the road.
The GTK+ API seems like a nice clean design, and there is already a Python
binding. Any comment from anybody on how stable it is? Are the text and
canvas widgets anywhere near competitive with Tk's? There are hints
of a wxWindows-based port to Windows on the GTK+ site; is there a Mac port?
