If Jifty could handle events(I know the namespace Jifty::Event is being
used), then my imaginary picture is like this:

1. write an order sheet in XML(Jifty Vocabulary)
  <xml>
  <mainWindow>
     <menuBar>
        <menu>
           <menuItem>
              <name/>
              <id/>
              <action/>
              <event/>
              ...
           </menuItem>
        </menu>
     </menuBar>
     <leftPanel/>
     <rightPanel/>
     <statusPanel/>
  </mainWindow>

2. feed the XML file to the Jifty wrapper to GUI widgets( or Jifty Desktop
Platform)

3. pull them down to dispatcher and action, model, template, event(Jifty
Homeground)

4. reuse the functions(Jifty Natural Resource); login, session, channel, and
so on.

Well, this is a very common scenario, I think. For example, Firefox,
Netbeans, and Eclipse(maybe), they are taking this way. That's it. We can
clearly and easily predict ...
