Are there any plans to support styling so you can get a native look-and-feel on non "Modern" Windows operating systems?

There's already https://github.com/picoe/Eto if you want to use native controls - if that's what you need go for it! But there's a need for both approaches IMO and hopefully Avalonia can start to fill one of those!

EDIT: Ah you edited your question: yes controls are fully styleable - the reason we've got the "modern" look so far is simply because it's easy! More themes, and "native" looking themes are definitely welcome.

It looks like Eto doesn't plan to support .NET Core. https://github.com/picoe/Eto/issues/457

But this might change if a framework like Avalonia adds Core support.
