Choice of implementation language may be based on familiarity, time to complete, performance, efficiency, and added package dependencies. Since Qt is written in C++, GUI programs using it are most efficient (memory and speed) if they are also written in C++. As long as one sticks to C++ (and C), then Qt helps provide application portability on many types of systems. Perl and Python add quite a lot of memory overhead. My experience with Python (for web-based user interface) is that it provides a very nice incremental rapid development experience but with an unexpectedly high cost in terms of memory use. The pleasant incremental rapid development model offered by Python and Perl could be the deciding factor when it comes to developing a user interface but it does come with a cost.
