I hope not. I like SourceTree the way it is (on OS X) and every cross platform UI toolkit I know produces apps that don't feel native.

IMHO Bitbucket/Atlassian is doing it the right way: Native on the client side.

Check out Xamarin Studio. It's a full blown IDE and it's quite impressive in terms of native feel. Apparently written in C#, Mono and GTK#.

They have stayed pretty true to it, they bought it about a year ago and made it free. It used to be like Tower or Cornerstone where you had to buy it for $29 bucks or something. Have liked it since then and was a much better client than MacHg at the time for teams. Glad Windows is getting this, I use TortoiseHg and Git there currently but will probably switch.
