I agree with you --

I did a survey about a year ago, and the only GPLd, cross platform
toolkits I found were wxWindows & FLTK. Whil wxWindows is very
comprehensive and large, the fast & light in FLTK had me sold
immediately. I am using it to develop octplot and I am very satisfied
both with the existing code and the support given by the maintainers.

Perhaps you should also consider implementing OpenGL support using
Fl_Gl_window into octave?
