Right now.

Use Visual Studio to program a .net application using Windows Forms.
Run it in Mono on Windows, or OS X, or Linux. You can even do it with
IronPython. Or, if you prefer a native look on each application, do it
with wx.net. The great thing about IronPython in .net is that you can
just link in any other .net library in whatever language it's written
in, without needing any sort of wrapper.

Admittedly, I haven't tried this, I'm just going by the hype I read on
the Mono and wx.net pages. Also, you can quibble whether it's Visual
Studio that tries to address this, or the Mono effort.
