Not sure but I think the one in core should be the simplest. Click on

I don't mean to get into "my favorite client is X" debate, but if we're
picking something for core, I'd argue for picking a client that people
really love.[1] I've never used Azureus, but by that reasoning, since
Azureus is regularly on sf.net's most downloaded/highest activity lists,
it's a good choice. The "safe but boring" default client is a bad choice.
Fedora focuses on Gnome.
For UI consistency - a gnome client is best imho.
A non gnome gtk client is acceptable.
Funny that Azureus uses SWT toolkit, which in turn uses GTK :-)
Java - I'm not a big fan. I've never tried Azureus - but the only
operating system I've ever used where gui java apps look even halfway
acceptable is OS X.
See Eclipse (SWT as well).
Granted, I'm not a big fan of many Java GUI apps -- people go too wild
with "app has to look their way", which ends up in too many apps looking
different :( (And I'm a Java developer myself.)
