Hi, I'm Nobody, and I like warm hugs!

My GUI building is entirely by typing textual descriptions. Yes, there
are some good builders, but I do my layouts on a basis of rules rather
than strict pixel positions. Rules and bag-based layouts mean there's
no problem with something getting too big and messing up your layout.

Is it really helpful to drag objects into a nearly-invisible "Vertical
Box" container? Pushing boxes around is great when you attach
everything directly to the window, but that gets messed up pretty
quickly by a user's themes, font sizes, etc (not to mention a change
of platform). Explicitly putting things into their boxes, grids,
tables, etc means it's always right.
