Why would each piece of data require its own method? I don't see the
purpose of this.

This sounds interesting, but I don't have any experience with a GUI
library except Pygame, which isn't suitable for the job. I might do
something like this as a personal project later, but I don't have the
time now.

From this spec, I'm not really sure what it's supposed to do. Structs
are just containers of data, correct?
