I agree with Stephan that it is less code to write a browser-like user 
interface with Glamour. That is the advantage of using a domain-specific 
solution, like Glamour. However if you are writing something that falls outside 
of the domain, i.e. a user interface that is not a browser, it will become 
difficult with Glamour.

So I also agree that the question is: what do you mean with 'a typical window'? 
What is it that your UI should do ?
