OMG, Yes! Unfortunately I think we're too far along the current path to 
do that. A change that big would in practice require a complete rewrite. 
If we ever achieve greater code separation, then this sort of thing 
becomes possible by layering a 2D Java/Swing or C# GUI over the existing 
3D engine. That's my dream anyway.
