Controversial issue. Personally I've always had issues with Swing's
over-engineered and emulating style and felt an application should
look like the native desktop, nothing more and nothing less. Swing is
constantly playing catch up and as soon as you pull in a couple of
3'rd part controls, you end up fighting L&F inconsistencies. SWT looks
and feels better, screen readers can use it etc. etc. As far as I
know, Java is the only language which insists on emulating rather than
delegating. But I'm going to guess this post will be followed by
contrary opinions. :)
