I would also rank highly a library that has good internationalization

Seems like a move in the right direction, but managing dependencies for
different platform is going to be complicated, no?

I'm not sure why you want that so much. I like the possibility of having GUI
specification in a separate file in order to adapt my application's look to
the need of the customer (optimize it for a particular screen size or use a
particular type of font, etc) without the need to recompile it.

I would not use something that set the GUI layout in stone once it has been
compiled.
