What does "Cygwin native" mean? If Cygwin is meant to be a POSIX environment, then X11 should be the standard for GUI apps.
Not gonna happen: it has been stated before on this list that 'insight' *must* run without X -- which means that tk will remain Win32GUI.
It may be possible, eventually, to have both win32GUI-cygwin-runtime-tk and XGUI-cygwin-runtime-tk on the same machine, but nobody has undertaken the daunting task to make that happen. Ditto gtk.
However, I don't see the problem in assuming that GUI apps are presumed to be X-flavor (with the tk exception, above). If at some point somebody figures out how to build a similar GUI app/toolkit in the opposite flavor, it can go in /opt/.
