Design wise, not much I guess. However I see getting a back end for GUIs
into the C++ standard as important, and this would be an step toward that.
The reason I am not pushing to complete a full library/framework is I
believe no matter how state of the art the design is now, it would
eventually become out of date as the standard does not update quickly.

Therefore, I aim for a design that would be acceptable for the Standard
Library, not the best design for any particular GUI. And
