Hi deekayen, I appreciate your point about not wanting to learn yet another language.
I agree that better UIs and tools are needed. Its possible that CoCKTaiL could be a part of such a solution, too - having something that might be a target for generation from UML might make sense to people who like those ways of working. Also, the GUIs might manipulate objects which generate CoCKTaiL (hence delegating responsibility for the nitty-gritty details)
In any case, I hope that this is closer to the kind of representation one might scribble on the back of a napkin, i.e., a little more intuitive for people. Hopefully the strength of this will be to allow more interaction and iteration at the design level, with an easy transition to code from the work products of the design activities.
Both approaches are needed, I think
