But the funny thing is that Swing on Apple's JVM has had a "native" L&F at least as accurate as Sun Java 6's (on Windows and GNOME) for a very long time. I doubt if Apple's version 6 runtime will be much of an improvement over previous versions, but I guess if I really cared I could install the beta to find out. Anyway, you make a good point here. Typical Java programmers (API writers and users) are sooooo far behind in good interfaces; having achieved a decent visual representation, they declare victory even though freaking keyboard bindings and the clipboard still can not be expected to work reliably!
