I think "media player" is one of the best cases for ImGUI's, as they whole frame changes every time.

The RMGUIs (should?) be much more efficient when the contents are both hard to render and don't change much -- think large amount of styled text, or detailed SVG diagram, or a graph.

(and blank QWindow consumes 0% CPU when there are no screen updates -- this would be hard to beat with IMGUI's even with the best GPU)

(You're 100% right about the QWindow - it's nested layouts that cause it to shit a brick, and even then only on resize)
