Sometimes, certainly - but not without a *very* good reason. "Because
the Windows version looks like that" isn't a good reason. Newcomers to
the platform should google "Word 6 fiasco" (including the quotes), and
learn from Microsoft's mistakes. Basically, they tried to make Word 6
look and feel as close as possible to the Windows version, and the
result was a disaster.
