Last time I wrote front end stuff I recall OS producers having intensely complex style guides for "look and feel compliance."
 
Unless of course you're writing for Linux, in which case "native look and feel" means "throw a bunch of poorly aligned crap at the screen and say 'well its like, open source man, change it yourself' whenever anybody complains."

I was brought up to respect my elders. I don't respect many people nowadays.
