I agree with you, you have a point there, and years ago I would have agreed with you. But users are getting more and more accustomed to a variety of GUIs (and general GUI logic). I used to work a lot with SWT and Cocoa and I know that unless you use the native toolkit in a native environment (say Cocoa and Xcode on OS X), you will never get the full experience. There are always things you cannot get with bindings. And what about the cool feature X on the Mac that is not available on Windows or Linux? In a way it's always a lowest common denominator thing with bindings.

People are also starting to use GTK based stuff on Windows and Mac, which offers a different user experience. Still people cope with it.
I hate that. It's so far from the native toolkit. -- /Jacob Carlborg
