<div>My primary concern is that I can't tweak the look and feel of the components finely enough. For example, make buttons larger, or change overall font size (which my guess can be done, somehow). Ideally, I'd like to have the same sort of control I get in CSS - change fonts, add padding/margin (which I think I can approximate), add in a border, control background color, etc. For example, I'm worried that a client I'm developing an app for at the moment might come back to me and say: "I'd like the radio buttons and check boxes to be larger, and can we make the background of the name field yellow?"</div>

<div>Do you think that is a reasonable concern?</div>
