The plus point of fpGUI is that when you compile LCL-fpGUI, you compile 
(or could recompile) the underlying toolkit too. So bug fixes or 
improvements can be applied instantly (to LCL or fpGUI). When you build 
LCL-QT or LCL-GTK3, you don't normally recompile Qt or GTK3 - instead 
you wait for when those toolkits release a new version and that filters 
to the next release of your Linux distro.
