Perhaps GTK? But this is rarly the point. There are enough toolkits to make
choices from.
And you can improve on existing ones as you wish.
if b is the most important point - use qt or gtk.
if c is very important - go for gtk (if it isn't ported yet - you can port
it yourself!) or tk or motif or use Java.
a is rarely important in itself. Sometimes its necessary as means to b or c
- but then you can use gtk.  

Plenty to choose from.

GTK+/Gnome has the same inherit problem as SWING - footprint.
