complies with interface guidelines, however I get that the feature of producing 
an app for each platform that has the look and feel of the respective OS is 
compelling.

There should probably be a preference or property to be able to override the 
default HIG specifications, so that if I want to use sheet dialogs, or some 
other mechanism not prescribed in the HIG, I should be able to.

Well, as one can fake badged dialog windows for cross-platform parity by using palettes

there should be no earthly reason why one cannot fake sheets.

However, as it is my bedtime and I have a full day today teaching small Bulgarians how to say "Hello" and so forth I shall leave my attempt at that one until the
weekend.
