Yes, but GtkD doesn't use native controls.
A minor point, I think. Eclipse doesn't look very native and has
widespread acceptance.
It depends on what you're looking at. The SWT philosophy is something
like this: Use controls that are available as native controls on as many
platforms as possible. For example, if a control is available as native
on 3 out of 4 platforms, use the native on the 3 platforms and emulate
it on the fourth. If a control is only native on 1 out of 4 platforms
don't include it in SWT. SWT also has some custom (non-native) controls
like the tabs used by Eclipse.
And the tabs are everywhere, and no attempt was made to make them look
native to any platform.
