I'm new to wxPython and have been reading through the wxPython archives.
One of the common points of confusion seems to be developers running
into OS specific nuances.
Is there an 'official' list of these type of nuances? I'm not
complaining, I'm just hoping to proactively code around known issues vs.
repeat the discovery process that others have already gone through.
Examples of OS specific nuances:
- OS X only supports 16x16 cursors
- GTK is the only OS X that supports stock buttons
- Enter and Tab operate differently under different os's
- The imagelist behaves differently in different os listctrl's

There is this one for GTK2 and Win32 at Gtk and Win32 differences - wxPyWiki but it would be nice to have a page that covered all platforms. There are also some other pages that deal with some OS X specific things. Consolidation and verification would be a good thing if somebody has the time to do it.
