Regars...
I would caution you to understand your user community. I work on an
open source cross platform product (CvsGui). The person that maintains
the Mac port does not use the Gtk implementation, but has written a
native one. Serious Mac users disdain most cross-platform tools,
because most apps end up feeling like Windows applications, and the
native Mac look and feel is quite different from that.
If your app has a restricted user community and they are okay with Gtk
apps, then fine. The old axim holds: know your customer.
