This sums up my opinion on this topic quite well. I think we're going to get a better experience if we integrate this at the Gtk level than if we try to invent a bunch of generic interfaces that would be required to get this sort of level of integration. If we can design this as a feature for Gtk and discover that, actually, the API is not that tightly coupled with Gtk, then we could consider the possibility of moving it to GIO -- assuming we become convinced that there is a good non-GTK use for it there. There's a lot of "we" here. Is anyone actually interested in stepping up to work on this?
