In my previous posting I raised issues in response to RMS which perhaps are
inappropriate for comp.emacs.  More appropriate would be a discussion of
the features of various windowing systems that make it easy or hard to
implement emacs-like multiwindow mouse-based editors.  Would anyone who is
familiar with both the SUN windowing system and X care to compare them
from this perspective?  In particular, I'm interested in issues of
synchronization of events, ease of implementing things like scroll bars
and menus, etc.
