I don't agree.  The drawing primitives are the same and all they've done is
replaced handles with classes.  The API is actually identical to the 8 year
old WFC classes from J++.  It's the same non-MVC, ancient, outdated way of
writing UIs.  Appropriate for quick drag and drop UIs while making it
difficult and inefficient to write anything more advanced.

All the best,
