As I remember that was about 1.6 Mb but with win32 widgetset. Gtk2
widgetset need much work to achieve the same results (as you should
remember the main problem is code like If someobject is TSomeLCLClass
then ....).
Also we can split resources to add between widgetsets. For example os
x widgetsets does not need drag cursors because they are built in. Gtk
does not need various button images because of the same reason.
And windows does not usually display button images.
So they get included, only because people can turn the property to "on"
I think, the same trick can be used.
- Have them included by a unit that is not used in the LCL (and check
for failure, if trying to use them)
- But have them by default in every app's uses
Then users can strip them off, if they want
