 I would consider it is a bug, and will be fixed later.

 Etoile is not a GNU project.
 GNUstep is strictly a development environment
 and there are many projects using it for applications.
 Some of them are hosted under GNUstep,
 like GWorkspace and SystemPreferences,
 and many are not.

 GNOME use GTK, KDE us Qt.
 and Etoile use GNUstep.
 I think that is the biggest difference.
