IMHO they both don't integrate well with Windows, as several widgets
work different than similar widgets in "normal" Windows applications.
And the same is true for both of them on linux.

(And if they _look_ more native on Windows at first sight, that's even
worse, because users will be even more surprised when a widgets does
something unexpected!)
