Yep. (I'm not very deep into Delphi and never did such a thingy, yet)

As you know I am always against tying functionality to GUI platforms. So 
I think this (if ever) should be implemented just based on the OS ("DLL" 
or "so", or whatever is provided on Mac and friends). Of course any 
supported  GUI framework ("platform") needs top get working on top of that.

Anyway you are right that if it's not available for some of the 
supported archs, it does not harm that much.
