Requiring X11 seems to be a hurdle for a lot of OS X users. I think a

Yeah. We also have the issue of not having the native look and feel
of Mac OS X and its applications, which is a serious infraction in the
Mac world ;-).
Three minutes after Stephen's mail arrived I received a request from
Laura Chappell for iPhone support. It would be nice to be able to
expand
to other platforms if needed.
Did Laura mention what sort of things we could explore doing on an
iPhone? I thought a little bit about that too, but didn't have any
big ideas.
For those who don't know: Like Mac OS X, iPhone applications are also
written in Objective-C and use a graphics API called Cocoa Touch,
which is similar to OS X's Cocoa.
