Qt isn't native. They're drawing their own widgets that look close to native - that's why you can theme Qt apps.

Factually incorrect, since Qt uses native widgets when possible. Applying Qt stylesheets usually disables use of the operating system's styling engine, i.e. only then Qt starts drawing the widgets by itself. Widgets that are not part of the native widget assortment are drawn by Qt.
