  1. Deluxe UI with ZX Draw on Linux, and a native host OS dialog box that actually works!

    Ensuring that the toolkit works across all three major desktop GUIs may not look like much if you're coming from Electron-world but it does matter a lot that this is just a small self-contained binary with minimal OpenGL dependencies (also no JVM, .NET CLR, GTK or QT needed).

    At least to me it does matter! This gives me more confidence that I can actually write competent desktop GUI stuff and complete #DeluxeDraw for general pixel art as intended, and maybe the Postman substitute "Getman" as well (especially without massive Electron / Chrome / Node dependencies)
