Hi,
if QT was regarded as an option, CommonQt would probably be the more obvious choice for a CLIM Backend to avoid multiple layers of abstraction. In addition CommonQt (and Qtools) currently is stuck with Qt4 and I'm not aware there are any efforts to port it to Qt5.

I just have two questions:
Has consideration been given to basing a back-end on QTools?
No, QTools never came up as a proposed backend. We did consider cross-platform libraries as backends though. I think that the most likely SDL backend will be implemented at some point of time.
Does it have
potential to do the job, or is it better to work directly through native OS capabilities.
I would be surprised if it couldn't do a job. I don't know this library but it seems to be a layer on top of CommonQt which is pretty complete to my knowledge.
Cheers
Mike Thomas
