FWIW, the resistance is not "to platform-specific functionality" but "to
functionality that only works if you use proprietary Software"
(e.g. Windows-specific of OSX-specific).
In practice it basically means that X11 is given preferential treatment.
But if/when GNUstep support works well enough, you should be able to
argue for the addition of GNUstep-specific functionality (even if it
also works under OSX).
