I am of the opinion that the library should use native widgets.  It
sounds to me like you want to create a custom universal widget
set, but of course, this is going to be a hot-button issue for this
library.  I think the majority of people who have chimed in have
also voted for or assumed native widgets, but I could be wrong.
An interesting question is whether the library could support a
native widget set as an abstract third-party platform.  Then people
who want that exact portable look and feel can get it by specifying
the custom widget platform.

Dave
