As I said previously in this thread, honestly this doesn't matter
anymore.  Even MS doesn't use native widgets in their own software.  Any
widget set worth its salt will draw using the theming dll so things look
consistent, but whether or not an app feels right depends on the
programmer.  Use the correct button order for the platform, the right
keyboard shortcuts, the right default button in dialog box behavior,
etc, and you'll do quite well.  OS X is a bit of a special case, but Qt
can be made to fit fairly well on OS X.
