What I mean is that a Qt app will look native everywhere, and Gtk apps will look native in most places.
Most other toolkits, as you mentioned, don’t look native in many places, but Qt natively supports the CDE style, the Motif style, all different Windows and Mac styles, etc.
A Qt app looks native on Mac OSX, on Solaris, under Gnome, under KDE, under Windows XP, under Windows 10.
That’s why I avoid apps that aren’t either native or Qt anywhere, no matter if I am running Gnome or Windows, KDE or Mac.

Can you point me at an example of an app that does it really well? We couldn't find any compelling ones when we were investigating platforms for N1. :/
