A widget style is a plugin that draws all the different control items like buttons, sliders, menus, etc. Being plugins, i.e. a library of program code, they have more possibilities to change the appearance of the application's GUI than pixmap themes.

Unfortunately there is no software that can relyable detect bugs in other programs, as far as I know.
