All what you say here already exists in C++. For instance, you can have a look at QT.

It does not use boost::signal (for portability reasons in the beginning, I suppose, and because boost::signal did not exist at that time), but also works with a mechanism of signals and slots that requires some small preprocessing of files..

Does anyone here think that requiring a pre-compiler is a reasonable thing to require?

Not me. It's one of the things that bothers me the most about Qt. Bob
