Actually, Delphi and Lazarus also use external files for the UI. But
instead of XML, they are some pascal object files (*.lfm & *.dfm).

Now if you were talking about fpGUI's UI Designer, then yes, there the
UI code is generated as source code. But, I still have clear
separation between UI and business code/objects. The form unit is what
I consider the UI, so the UI Designer is welcome to write code inside
that. My business objects, eg TLearner, TSchool etc are in separate
units, learner.pas and school.pas, respectively. The business objects
know nothing about the UI.  ;-)
