	My toolkit of the choice would be Gtk#, maybe I'd use a mixture 
of both toolkits (see below). Authors are claiming it 
being not ready for production use... But: I'm quite sure that putting 
Gtk# under heavy duty will cause it to stabilize soon. Plus:

	- Gtk# is available for X11 and Windows today
	- Gtk# looks "native" on X11 and "not unfamiliar" on Windows 
	  (specially if you use windows forms for common dialogs like
	   file or color dialog)
	- IHMO Gtk# is much more convenient to use
	- there is a good chance to get Gtk# running on MacOS X one day
