Speaking from half-ignorance, CLIM is an unusual beast. It contains
many good ideas, but the current mess should die.

Said differently, all useful CLIM implementations must make
significant deviations from the standard. Furthermore, its design is
rather heavyweight, requiring most things to be done "the CLIM way".
