I disagree with this idea. We (most of us anyway) selected a different OS/hardware because we believe it offers something that the others do not (regardless of if it is features or familiarity).
Given that, I believe it is the duty of the Front End to resemble the OS it runs on and make use of it's underlying features.
If the OS is not important to the user, then by all means they should go with the hardware/OS of the FE that meets their needs and is usable for them.
