python for .NET (question/idea)

[Guyon Morée]

I was looking at the python for .NET stuff mentioned in a previous thread. I
downloaded the package and to my suprise there was also a demo-app included
which used the .NET 'Forms' module.

I thought it was cool to be able to use the .NET gui library, which is quite
clean and powerful  in my opinion.

I know it is probably 'windows-only' and the.NET runtime is required, but
what could be other drawbacks on using the .NET framework for gui's?
