I've built and am maintaining a not-so-simple-anymore cross platform GUI application using wxPython (running in GNU/Linux (GTK+) and Windows (XP/Vista)). It integrates well since wxPython uses native widgets. The only problems I face are minor looks problems with some widgets, e. g. tooltips with line breaks or list controls with custom font. Custom widgets work very well. Windows fonts BTW are a real pain since they have almost no unicode characters, compared to today's GNU/Linux distributions.
