        My toolkit of the choice would be Gtk#, maybe I'd use a mixture 
of both toolkits (see below). Authors are claiming it 
being not ready for production use... But: I'm quite sure that putting 
Gtk# under heavy duty will cause it to stabilize soon. Plus:

        - Gtk# is available for X11 and Windows today
        - Gtk# looks "native" on X11 and "not unfamiliar" on Windows 
          (specially if you use windows forms for common dialogs like
           file or color dialog)
        - IHMO Gtk# is much more convenient to use
        - there is a good chance to get Gtk# running on MacOS X one day

Ciao,
Mathias
