Description
Canonical must encourage work in making OOo and Java support GTK better, OOo should actually use GTK correctly and Java must be able to mimic a lot more GTK engines, or at least ubuntulooks since it is used in the default.

OOo has a lot of issues with GTK specially noticeable on custom themes.

I vote + but I think it could legally be done when the 7th version of java will come out (cause it will be free software, so it can be possible to "tweak" the defaut look and feel.

Yeah, I did not say Canonical must work on Java to fix it, but encourage or aid Sun doing it.

Java 7 will be totally FLOSS? Is that right?

I thinks this idea is very similar to this idea!
