Seaside with XUL
Pavel Krivanek posted to the Seaside mailing list about generating XUL from Seaside. XUL is the user interface markup language that Firefox and applications based on XULRunner use for the user interface. Seaside is a continuation based web framework written in Smalltalk.
Using this combination they get native look and feel for the platform for Smalltalk applications.

For some meaning of "Native". On the Mac platform, the XUL widgets are not at all native-ish. Too bad. It's the main reason Firefox is not my main browser (and the mail client is not my main mailer): it feels like a port rather than like a native app.
My possibly flawed understanding (I don't have a Mac to test on) is that FF3 has native Mac look and feel. Is that wrong?
