Mike, the other area that seems problematic is the menu rendering which 
has limited styling abilities at least on some platforms (Windows ?). 
Perhaps we should be producing platform-specific themes that use the menu 
(and header?) styling where it's supported in the true CSS 'best attempt' 
manner ?

Question for SWT: Do either the table header or menu support 'owner draw' 
? If so then using this would likely be far less effort that 
re-implementing them...

Onwards,
Eric

Well, one possibility would be (for SWT) to hide the standard headers and 
"custom draw" an equivalent (if you've styled them). Obviously, this is a 
lot of work, but if that's what's standing in the way of the theming 
flexibility we want, then we should consider it. I'm not going to assume, 
a priori, any restrictions on what is possible. If you need the capability 
enter a bug requesting it.

Those are Aqua widgets and can't be changed, just like SWT 
Button(SWT.PUSH). The only solution is to change to a different platform, 
I think!
