Is there a good paper which differentiates "User Interface Development
Environment", "User Interface Builder", "User Interface Prototyper", and "User
Interface Management System"?

Now that we are all good toolkit programmers, toolkit
programming is being replaced by user interface builders.  How
can we easily take our existing applications and bring them into
the user interface builder world?  I am aware of past work done in
this area, but I'm not up to date on current toolkits.
Is the brute force solution the best?
