My gut reaction is no; it's a seperate library.

Although, it's a reasonable thing to do.  I do have misgivings about the 
gnome-friendliness of GtkSourceView's developers; I think one of them 
also works on GEdit.  I heard they plan to add support for gnome-print 
(for what purpose, I do not know).  Now, gnome-print isn't terrible, 
since it's a fringe GNOME library that seems to only depend on GTK 
libraries.  And presumably, it'll be optional (or we can provide a patch 
to make it optional).  But, my point is that if the developers do 
something we don't like, it would be an option to fork gtksourceview and 
bundle it with us.  I just don't think we need to take such drastic 
steps yet (it would be nontrivial effort without much reward).
