This is seriously cool. I feel slightly validated that I've also been wrapping these by hand, since it's kind of quirky to try and auto-generate these while keeping the same usability and such as their original incarnations.

For those interested in a Rust variant, I've been hacking on one for awhile: https://github.com/ryanmcgrath/cacao

I wouldn't say it's yet ready for production use, but so far it's working pretty well for me. Been dogfooding it by building an app I've wanted for a bit - a proper magic-wormhole macOS app.

One of the things I've really wanted to keep to is the delegate pattern, since I think it actually works really well for Rust's model. A fun example I finished yesterday is ListView cell reuse:

Ultimately I view this as one of the last pieces needed for a cross-platform Rust UI framework to actually work.
