You can send it to me.  It's definitely interesting, however, I think
we will review the changes for minimality.  For example, you added a
picture, and that is eye candy.  We don't bend to any Gnome Human
Interface Guide :)  It's all in the name of security, of course.

Anyway, updating to Gtk+-2 will be needed at some time anyway, and I
would like to have a Gtk+-2 version beside the Gtk+-1.2 version in the
source.

Thanks,
Marcus
