I have the same annoyance. It's continually maddening to see "native" plastered everywhere only for it to be some non-native junk. I miss when native meant something like Qt.

Qt is an interesting case, because it doesn't use the native platform's widget code, but does a good job of looking and behaving as though it does. That's usually good enough for me. I'm not aware of any other toolkit that succeeds at this.

(Except on Qt-based desktops like KDE Plasma, of course.)
