Yes, we shouldn't avoid embracing/using our GUI toolkit to its fullest 
just because people dislike the most famous desktop environment that 
uses it. If we're never going to fully embrace it to avoid "gnoming 
things up", then we should switch to a different toolkit that everyone 
feels comfortable with and fully embrace that. The toolkit we use 
shouldn't be a political/emotional issue but rather technical.
