[MonoDevelop] Comments on Stetic GU designer

I think I did not explain myself clearly.

Am not suggesting to have Stetic target "different" toolkits.

What am saying is that Stetic could use some improvements to make it
easier to build GUIs.  I am a strong believer that we can do pretty much
everything with tables. 

The issue is that our table editing is fairly basic.  

I believe that SpecTcl has some great ideas on how to improve the Table
editing experience, and that is what am point to in terms of improving
the Stetic designer experience.
