No.
Cross platform compatibility nice thing only for developers. (For us)
Windows users like and expect to see windows_explorer_like application or microsoft_office_like application.
KDE users expect to see KDE_like application.
Gnome users expect to see Gnome_like application.

Most flame wars you read about user interface issues focus on the wrong thing. Windows is better because it gives you 
more ways to resize the window. So what? That's missing the point. The point is, does the UI respond to the user in the 
way in which the user expected it to respond? If it didn't, the user is going to feel helpless and out of control
