[Lazarus] Is Lazarus project in a downward spiral?

If fpGui is used as a base for a light native *nix widgetset for LCL, and if 
the design change I suggested (in my reply to DoDi) gets implemented, then 
Lazarus will be revived (again). :-)
The current bindings will never be good, because of inherent problems. That 
doesn't kill Lazarus but it will remain as a freak show case, instead of 
becoming a popular high quality application.

I see the quality of Lazarus code is now strictly divided between core 
features which is high quality, and the widget bindings which has problems.

What do you think?
