I have the same sentiments. Pencil is nice, but not as polished as Balsamiq.
I use Balsamiq al the time (at work and play). A native version would be
great because Adobe Air isn't the smoothest thing on Linux. One of the
things that I'm not comfortable with is the lack of ctrl+c on Balsamiq on
Ubuntu, which works fine on Windows.
