John Smith is working on a Qt interface here http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=15276.0

However, I am strongly opposed to adding a USD column because that would make the client depend on an exchange and give the impression that BTC is tied to the dollar.

Except that Merchants using Bitcoin still trade in dollars, and must be able to quickly price goods and services in Dollars. Yours is just a fundamentalist party line, that seems to refuse that 95% of the talking being done about Bitcoin is because it has a peg to the dollar, and as such has a baseline store of value that becomes more reliable the more people buy it for the dollars you're so against.

Without other currencies to exchange to, Bitcoin has no value to the public at large.

Just my ten cents. No, not my ten bitcoins. My ten cents.
