Writing cross platform desktop applications is series of compromises in the technical requirements you may have. You should prioritize each requirement from top to bottom. Then start removing requirements from the bottom and compare against available technologies, iterate this process you will find out what is truly important and what compromises you are willing to make.

Personally I searched for many years for the perfect GUI system, the unicorn, but never found any. By doing a stricter prioritization I came to the conclusion that writing in a modern language is overrated.
