I really think Cocoa & ObjC can / should be separated. One is a

For there is no way to implement the features in such a cra\b\b
\bstatic language as C++ is. Not even Java qualifies: just recall the
history of Apple first very actively promoting a move from ObjC to
Java, now discontinuing the Java/Cocoa support altogether.
The thing is, of the C-based and (comparatively) mainstream
programming languages Objective C is the *only* one whose design was
smart enough so that its flexibility fully support all the demands of
modern libraries like Cocoa. Seems modern things like Ruby qualify as
well, but I guess you'd rather select ObjC :)
