Or you could use Lisp, and have the UI be S-Expressions. Everything can edit a list

Can you give me an example of a Lisp UI library like that?

Two come close but aren't quite there...

Seesaw [0] - A nice-ish way of using Swong in Clojure.

Iup [1] - One of the friendliest GUIs I've used, hands down. Just feels like Scheme.

However, I'd expect that QML and X-Expressions could go hand in hand to make something much closer, with a bit more flexibility.
