It is probably the way to go. I hope some things that are done in X now
will be simpler, because GTK does more for you than Xlib.
But scrollbars looks hairy. I haven't made my mind up to do that first

That sounds cool indeed. I haven't looked at GTK 2.0 at all. The
priority is to get GTK 1.2 integrated. Guile-gtk and other things
must wait until later.
