While porting Windows Forms applications to web pages that you browse on a computer (not on a mobile phone), one tries to keep the look and feel of the application. On a more concrete note, you try to use the same forms, the same icons, the same behaviour. Otherwise we aren't porting an application, we are re-developing the application. So I'd rather use a theme that looks as closely as possible to the original application.
If we use a theme with SVG icons, we need to choose new SVG icons for the rest of the application so it looks consistent.
If I use a theme with thick window title bars and thick borders, I loose form area to display all my carefully designed and aligned controls.
If I use a theme where the DGV has thick lines, it will show less lines and will reduce the ported application usability.
I could also add something about the colours, but I guess you got the point. I'm asking for a Vista theme in order to make application porting easier.
