No, I don't.  I think the OS rules are stupid, and the programmers 
tainted by that stupidity.  I want the damned program to work the same 
way with the same layout on every platform.  If it doesn't do that, then 
the major advantage to having a cross-platform program is lost; the 
ability for a user to seamlessly use the program on any OS without 
learning a new set of rules.

All your excuses and rationalizations do not justify variances from one 
platform to the next.  It just allows programmers to continue to work 
against the needs of the user in order to appease corporate bozos.
