But this only speaks about what some GUIs lack, it's not necessarily true that GUI apps can't be composable, it's just that seldom they are made as such. The true potential of a GUI app is much richer than what terminal currently offers (unless it starts to receive capabilities usually present only in GUIs, as we can see with some of them - but then it's a GUI with the severe terminal restrictions, a strange beast).

Is this planned to be addressed/fixed? (single-client model) Maybe there were previous attempts?
Whenever Nix/NixOS gets discussed I always see same points being brought up again and again. And again. I've never seen anything which is discussing solutions or the roadmap (however distant) to solve those issues.
Can it be that nothing is happening in this regard or is that really so that people only list same cons over and over again? :)
Every time I open the site and it pops up some weird "subscribe to this and that awesome content" in my face, I immediately close it. Each time I really hope that owner has some analytics set up and they will learn that having this thing is not a good thing to do to your readers.
Would be cool if I could control it from this webpage ;)
It looks awful with Xfce default theme. Gedit = Gnome Edit (I guess) - and it looks well and integrated really well when used in GNOME environment (gnome-shell).
So its not fair to judge it this way. Try to open some Xfce apps in GNOME and it will look like horror too (compared to gnome ones) :)
What I find funny is that this website uses flash itself.
Can't vote this comment down (not enough karma?), but I would. React is great library, it is not very constructive to call it a hack just because webcomponents are there.

Interesting project. Looks like it's somewhat stalled, do you know anything about its current state/plans?
Which JSConf was it? US 2014? Tried to find a video of this talk of yours, no luck so far.
