No, Mag offers only Goos (Frambuffer access) and Event 
(Mouse/Keyboard/etc input events) interfaces, whereas DoPE also offers 
full windowing features. DOpE is a windowing system at the 1st place, 
and Mag is a minimalistic GUI which does not operate with the concept of 
window, only more basic concepts, like views (rectangular areas of the 
screen).

So, the motivation, I think, is that keep Mag as a most minimalistic 
Gui, and DOpE as a full windowing system with realtime capabilities.
