wxWidgets is a software layer that controls window-ing and dialogs and I think it results in a more platform natural look ... ie ... some platform specific windowing behaviors will pass through and be visible to end user.
Since it has been in development for a long time now and presumably by a larger development team ... and with more deployments to more end users than when compared to ESDL/SDL windows ... It should be more fully featured than what we have been used to. Think room to grow.
One simple advantaged gained is "cut/paste" from system clipboard. But there should be hundreds or thousands of advantages if push ever came to shove.
For most wings3d users ... maybe the reaction should be MEH / BLAH. OK. That being said ... there has been a lot of work put into this change by wings devs, so thanks for that.
