In that case you are not reinventing an OS-provided wheel. Your case in point 
has nothing to do with my point. 

I am talking about the case where a cross-platform library uses non-native 
implementation of facilities that exist natively, and does so in a way that is 
not compatible (in terms of user experience) with the native facility. Case in 
point: text edit fields in Mozilla do not behave the same as text edit fields in 
every other Mac app.
