I hardly call a bad port using X11/GTK+ on OSX a worthwhile client.  I 
know of NO users that like how GIMP works on OSX, so why would kludge 
non-consistent, memory gulping poopy be better?  Evolution is alien, 
non-native, not integrated, memory hungry, buggy, and inconsistent on 
OSX, and I'm sure it's only slightly less of stinky cheese bait on the 
Windows side, which at least has a native GTK+ port.  Most the 
engineers, if not all specialize in X11 integration, it's not good 
enough to just port it and expect people to eat it up like it's 
candy-coated dogfood, it's still dogfood complete with alien probe and 
meteor to UNIX non-users.
