Actually that I my opinion from any web based UI, a mess of JavaScript/CSS trickery and HTML.

Native UI development feels so much more advanced and user friendly.

Saying this as a UX developer since the mid-90's.

My comment was in reference to using native toolkits from a language other than C++ and not the status of using native toolkits in general. <friendly-joke>I have a hard time believing that you've been using native UI toolkits using Haskell since the mid-90s.</friendly-joke> :)
No, but I was using Turbo Pascal followed by Delphi. Also played with C++ Builder, but by then Visual C++ had taken over as Borland was going through their Inprise phase.
