As a programmer, I'm all but sold on interviews. But everywhere I look
I see Motif and OpenLook apps. And from time to time the little differences
between interviews scrollbars and other scroll bars bug me.

Has anybody thought about a set of IV classes that would implement the
Motif or OpenLook look and feel?

The menubar of the 3.0 doc app looks a lot like the motif stuff. Is there
more where that came from?

Are there user-interface policies embedded deep in the interviews code, or
would it be straightforward to adopt Motif policies?

Thanks, and I'm sorry if I've blasphemed the holy GUI.
