Whatever API / bindings you use, please don't expose non-native UIs to users (drawn from scratch, either mimicking the native UI or not). They never completely integrate with the OS, subtly deviating from the native behaviour in ways that range from awkward to infuriating, and are always playing catch-up to the latest OS changes.
A non-native GUI toolkit should improve their standard / skinnable design instead of mimicking the native UI of each OS and spend a lot of time in catching up those changing native looks. Even Microsoft changes their native look as people get bored with it after a few years. A breath of fresh air is always welcome, no matter it's native or non-native.
The reason a non-native UI looks ugly is, when it is ugly on its own, without needing any comarision with a native UI.
