Thanks, your feedback is needed.

The division to multiple specialized tools will be preserved. However,
we create custom widgets for everything, so they may be reused in more
than one tool. There is a thought to make the main gui configurable,
i.e. it may be an all-in-one-window GUI you speak about, as an option.
I don't think this will be the default though. We will see.

I added this item (i.e. support for nested projects) to archelf TODO.
Currently the goal for the next release is to implement as much as
possible from the current TODO list.
