yet another css framework... What I want is a UI framework for web apps (forms, menus, modal windows, etc.) such as the ones for iPhone development

extjs, qooxdoo and cappuccino on the Javascript side, GWT and Vaadin for Java, Pyjamas for Python. Especially Java seems to have lots of "component-oriented frameworks".

Looks interesting, but no support for IE6 and IE7 can be a deal-breaker for many users, especially when there's 960gs ( http://960.gs ) which supports those browsers.

I like the idea of a real baseline grid, but...

"Safari 3, Google Chrome, Firefox 3, Opera 9 and Internet Explorer 8 all work correctly with some minor differences."

Seems like cross-browser compatibility (including Firefox 2, IE7, and heck if you're making a framework, IE6) would be at the top of the list of your priorities when creating something like this, though ;-).
