Depends. For many "desktop" apps, this is actually quite workable, with the 
additional advantage of having an Internet-/Intranet-ready implementation 
available in case you happen to need it later on.

Plus, you can take advantage of any HTML designers (as in "humans") you 
happen to have around, whereas you are often a bit on your own when you 
design a GUI using a toolkit, especially when you want it to work well in a 
cross-platform way.
