But it is possible to take a look at a set of applications on several
existing desktops (Gnome, Windows, MaxOSX), and decide that the GUI
techniques which are often used must be supported by the GUI library.

The question of requirements must be answered not only from a
developer's point of view, but from an user's point of view: no only to
facilitate programming of the GUI, but to make a better GUI.
(that was what my expectations list was about, by the way)

Native code is much less important than native look and feel indeed ;-)
