As long as reverting to non Mac OS-style is straitforward it would not hurt
much, however my experience with non-mac users is clearly against the mac
os-style.
Users usually don't understand it, and since it's difficult (at least in the
macs) to see what app the menu belongs to, they end up looking for menu
points that are not available.
But once again, provided we get a simple choice (I mean ONE dialog, one click
and you get the "old" configuration back, it would not be a problem.
Please remember that 21% who want the mac os-style means 79% who don't, and
that's a clear majority...
