Dylan, jgv:

I suggest, Dylan, you just try it and see what the effects are.  They
are rather retarted, IMHO.

As a matter of interest, yesterday I pulled in all the necessary
software and tried the very first item in the Getting Started section of
GTK+ 3 reference manual.  It runs without a hitch, producing the default
widget form which is both resizable, and in general what a window should
be.

Frankly, I don't understand why developers go out of their way to turn
some of these controls off.  I've discovered another frog in alarmclock,
an app that I rather depend on to keep me going through the day.  In
this version, while adding a new alarm, the text box for adding dialog
to the static popup doesn't appear to be enabled.  I am going to report
this as a separate bug after I have nailed it down a little better.

I suggest that whoever is writing these specifications needs to shake
his head.  There is a distinct trend in this version of Ubuntu (11.10)
to over-restrict some apps that were not previously so poor.  This is
definitely a retreat from quality.
