[kepler-dev] bug#5501 - kepler linux LnF

[Matt Jones]

If the native L&F is now rendering buttons et. al properly, then I would
argue we should switch back to that.  For linux, we don't have the
resources to test all of the potential distributions and all of the
potential window managers and themes on each, but if the stock Ubuntu gnome
theme works then it seems reasonable to ship that from my perspective.
 Other opinions?
