Just my opinion, though. Yes, there is a bug filed against this in bugzilla (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=508810). But I do not know when will this be accomplished. If we can convince that it will go into gtk in 1 or 2 GNOME release, we can just leave it alone. But if this will take a real long time(such as 2 or 3 years), then it would be a good idea to make a seperated package. IMPO, I think we put too many applications/libraries in one signle package.
