I did not forgot about Prima, and it is very interesting indeed, from
many points of view.

But this is not an external GUI lib slurped into perl extension, this is
GUI toolkit written for Perl (AFAIK)

So they invented GUI lib within Perl.

Still, they will gain more popularity if they will be more
cross-language :)
