would you really even entertain the converse - a gtk+ yast2 with some theming hacks on KDE ?
While it would be possible to achieve functionality and usability goals in either toolkit, the Qt UI is far better able to 'pass' as native gtk+ app, because it actually uses gtk+ to paint its UI when using QGtkStyle, whereas a gtk+ app can only mimic Qt's look and feel. It's like Tom Cruise's Mission Impossible synthetic skin disguises vs. the stick-on moustache approach of 60s spy flicks. So no, it wouldn't be worth it. And I know you have a soft spot for C++ ;).
I don't understand why both interfaces have to be so different. To me the ideal would be an engine with different display modules (gtk, qt, ncurses, web) with all a similar display and usage. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
