It ought to be possible to make an app for monitoring runs that is 
best-practice for Cocoa, or others, and have them talk to the model 
completely from another process, or from some other machine.  That was 
the main motive behind Gennady's work.   Also, as I understand it, 
they've got phase switching working on the Mac, which is a neat trick!

I don't think it matters if such a monitoring app were MacOS X only.   
Someone who wants the app on some other platform can adapt it to GNUstep 
or write a new one.  It would be nice if Apple/non-Apple branches could 
be merged or at least not diverge any more.

Yeah, I'd certainly vote for using SDG money to support this, limited as 
it is.
