After looking into it, I've been told that this is a bug in mcompositor, rather than a design issue: http://bugs.meego.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2953 >>> o The board is considering funding making Maemo 6 integrate >>> more nicely with GTK+. >> In the context, it seems like the task should be "Ensuring that Maemo 5 >> apps work well with upstream GTK+"? > > The first step would be fixing the compositor and/or adding support for > this new compositor in GTK+ itself. > > The second would be to start porting some of the Maemo 5 GTK+ and Hildon > features to GTK+. Yes, this certainly seems reasonable. But the bug in mcompositor seems sufficiently serious that it will have a high priority in mcompositor also (as mentioned in that bug report).
