I certainly wouldn't go THAT far! For example, I'm spending some
serious time with Seaside this weekend. I need a Web app framework
for a series of upcoming projects. For those projects, native widget
look-and-feel is absolutely irrelevant. I like the architectural
ideas behind Seaside but I'm still at the very early learning stage,
so I'm not yet sure it's as usable and powerful as, e.g., Django
(Python) or TurboWidgets (also Python strangely enough). I've tried
Ruby on Rails and found it too opaque although extremely powerful.

I've been in touch with Rob on wxSqueak and have done some
experimenting with it on OS X. I plan to get it running on Windows
soon and see how it looks and feels there. That may be the ultimate
solution for a lot of what i want to do on the desktop, but for the
near term, that won't satisfy my clients and colleagues because the
wxSqueak stuff isn't yet ready to release.
