No, this is about creating new Widget Types which don't use *any* of the 
widgets LCL provides.
In short, LCL philosophy is to have a High Level WS, (LCL) whose 
implementation part is demanded to some third party Widgetset (such as 
gtk, qt, Windows, etc.), via an Interfaces unit.
This is not compatible with other implementations, such as Kylix and 
fgGui, just to mention two.
