 Actually the review doesn't seem that bad (for us) but the conclusion
definitely is. It's not very clear to me how does he reach it from the
arguments he gave.

 They're probably not even that as you'd surely lose more time rewriting
your dialogs later than you save it initially. What could be useful would
be a script to import existing rc/nib to XRC -- and, in fact, I do know of
a company which ported their 1MLoC MFC app to wx by using such automated
import script so it can be done.
