This is the core question: Is it useful?
This also goes for most of the people on this list: We are so much into
constructing/dreaming up the impossible/inevitable
It's not bad, but it's not really free
(OpenSource),
Generally, musicians don't give a toss whether something is
free(Opensource) or not (let the flaming begin). ...

The guy has a point here: I spend an unreasonably amount of time getting
GTK.1.2 to deliver approximately what most people (programmers) would
have had expecteded. Recompiling for GTK.2.0 was a NO NO! because of all
the kludges I invented. My source for the userinterface was practically
_as_ unreadable as you can get.
( It is cleaned up now though, but had I gone elsewhere, then nobody
would have cared! ).
It is still so that gtk2 has higher demands on cpu than gtk1.x
