     This question came up in the context of a graduate research
project and lead to the creation of a wiki page with a list of
possible research topics. You can find the page at URL:

     You could make a very strong contribution and also get some
good first-hand experience by trying to develop a windowing API
that followed POLA principles. Good starting points would be the
current E efforts towards taming Swing and SWT and the prototype
EROS Windowing System.
