In the past I have done just that. But due to the design goals of LCL (being as native as possible), some changes simply ain't possible, or only possible in some backend toolkits (eg: QT), but not possible in others (eg: Win32). This inconsistency of LCL and incompatibility of backend toolkits is what Giuliano and myself have fought with. In hobby projects that might be fine, but in commercial multi-platform apps that is unacceptable. Years back I've made my peace with LCL, and then started fpGUI to solve our company's development needs. It worked out very well. I still use Lazarus IDE though - it is an excellent tool to write code in.
