then it sounds like a combination between "it's a silver bullet!" and 
"commercial software is better than free software!".

no matter how good Qt is, the reality is that if you spend that much 
time on the UI implementation parts of your project, you're probably 
developing at the wrong abstraction level -- no matter what toolkit 
you're using.  and if you're doing UI development the wrong way, chances 
are that you're doing other things the wrong way too.
