With UIL doing most of the setup work, you don't need too many Motif calls; typically few enough that its easy to create the bindings to them yourself. Also, it turns out registering widget names with MRM is one of the really nifty uses of 'image. Really the only problem with Ada and GUI's is getting bindings, and the typical un-adalike interface they tend to provide. I'm sure we'll get several replies from thick binding implementors saying how they have "solved" that problem too.
