Hi, I'm just a simple user, but I feel it would be a wrong direction for darktable to focus on widget-writing. IMHO this is an issue of proper packaging: If darktable right now depends on GTK <= 3.18, a distribution shouldn't do the upgrade to GTK 3.20 without warnings that something might break.
I think the widget design got a lot better in the transition to GTK 3. Making good widgets takes a lot of effort, and that doesn't pay off in a single program. Instead of specific widgets I'd like to see more development in stuff that is photography-specific, be it dual monitor setups (maybe have all the darkroom tabs show on the small monitor side by side and the image on the big one?), 30bit color, or cool image processing algorithms like the perspective correction.
