Mac support is continually improving in QGIS but is subject to some 
limitations. In this last release Tom Elwertowski went to a lot of effort to 
improve QGIS to follow HIGs for win/kde/gnome/os x. Obviously there is still 
more to be done but short of maintaining a separate development tree for a Mac 
version of QGIS, building a cross platform application will invariably involve 
some compromises. At least until we have enough champions for each platform to 
ensure proper HIG compliance at any rate. As such we would welcome your 
contributions / patches to help improve things on the OS X platform.

Regards

Tim
