The widget style is vital to the snappy feel of the interface.  A style 
that's slow to draw and redraw is harmful.

I'm sure every widget style author will tell you that they work hard at 
making it as fast as possible.  But, using pixmaps over not is a tradeoff  
giving up efficiency for fashion, that I'm not sure should be done as 
default.
