That VUE environment looks suspiciously similar to CDE which was what I saw on Sun Solaris boxes. Or am I getting confused?

The C in CDE is “common” because it was a collaboration between the major Unix vendors on a standard for how Unix desktops worked.

CDE was based heavily on VUE. If you read the CDE source code, you'll find many references to VUE.
