We really really shouldn't develop our own language. That's not the goal of
this project. Instead, I'd recommend we use ECMAScript/Javascript since it's
fairly close to what we need (window oriented stuff), and simply extend it
with what we need. Kind of like NN5 (anybody played with a beta build?
It seems like the whole browser is nothing more than JS and CSS. (esp. the
preference settings, which is what we're basicaly interested in);

And there's no reason why skins can't be cross-platform. Just desing them
well. Use PNG for images (it's an excellent format, but can use all the help
it can get). And sound in au.
