@Kry:

Do you know the current status of wxCocoa? (IIRC, you're also involved with the wxWidgets developement, otherwise just forget about this question)

Just because i recently managed to get amule compile with wxCocoa, but it looked like shit (it wasn't usable) - and i wondered if thats because of amule (which was optimized for wxMac/wxCarbon, but probably could be tweaked for cocoa as well), or wxWidgets (which couldn't really be fixed in a decent amount of time)

It's wxWidget's fault.

Just want to make things clear (IMHO):
* Current GUI suffers from several major drawbacks
* "Search" tab is definitely not well-designed
* Reworking External Connections may be interesting exercise, but will not have great effect on user-experience.
* Using closed source tool for GUI design is a mistake. The mere fact that developer agreed to grant some licenses doesn't change anything.
* The tool itself is bad. Again, I have nothing personal against developer, just IMHO tool is technically bad and we shouldn't be using it.

Given above points, I thing that changing GUI into Mac-styled-no-toolbar is bad idea.

Given his earlier post, I'm guessing lfroen had an extra negative in his last sentence. :)
