It's just not possible to build one UI for two different systems which use different UI guidelines and have it look and work right on both. For instance on Windows OK is supposed to be on the left and Cancel on the right; for Mac OS it is the opposite. And while it would be possible to adjust for simple rules like that, there are many that require a human interface designer.

Exactly. And non-standard UIs are a pain for users on any platform (and probably won't help me get my new app adopted by potential customers...)

Plus, with drag-and-drop GUI creation tools on both platforms, the amount of time necessary to create good, native UIs for both targets shouldn't be a big deal.
