Am one of those who prefer to use native widgets compared to
something like GTK. But as you say they don't all provide all
features. I think a good idea is the use a cross-platform GUI
library for the common widgets that exists on all platforms,
i.e. buttons and windows. There's not reason to use the native
API for those. Then extend that with platform specif code using
the native API, i.e. unified tool bar, sheets and so on, that
is found on Mac OS X.
I agree that it would be really nice to have a cross-platform
GUI framework written explicitly for D. But as you say that
would be an enormous task to do.
I'm working on the Mac OS X port of DWT. It all compiles but a
lot is not working. Some snippets are working:

Any help is appreciated.
Perhaps the link you just posted could provide a HTML-based
solution:

That'd be pretty cool.
