Oh, DrRacket also dogfoods its own GUI library. Write high level Racket; get fully native UI on Mac/Windows/Linux(gtk).

The IDE is not very mature. For example if you use the dialog to search through files, the UI locks up while searching. Usability generally is low...

I haven't used it very deeply (again, emacs), but I guess the deficiencies haven't been obvious to me upon casual use.

I agree, it also needs a lot of memory. Unless i use some debugging facility of drracket, i just use emacs with racket-mode.
