Course, I meant removed from GTK+ 4. While I'm still focussing on GTK+ 3,
I'm trying to spot obvious changes that 4 will need, which I can do now in
3, to make the task of porting far less painful when it comes around -
especially if things look like candidates for being removed. Plus, even if
they're retained, usually the newer way is better and worth doing anyway.

If I were using GTK+ 4, the new CSS border-spacing property for Box and
Grid would avoid the need for the (horrifying but surprisingly functional)
way that I hack it into GTK+ 3. It would be really nice to see that being
added in 3, but I'm guessing that's unlikely...
