I would say not even a toolkit can be C++. This just creates huge
runtime bloat and makes it unusable on C++-free systems.

I agree totally, GTK is way too bloated too. If you're writing a media
player gui with all kinds of custom widgets then IMO it's nonsense to
use an existing gui toolkit. Instead you just use the low level
functionality...
