+  <title>Event handling in GTK+ 3</title>
+
+  <para>
+    In version 3.6, GTK+ has overhauled the way widgets handle input events
+    considerably. The main motivation for this has been the more complex
+    interaction models used by modern toolkitts. In particular, enabling
+    all the behaviors people expect from multitouch support was guiding the
+    design.
+  </para>
+
+  <para>
+    The principles outlined in this chapter are only relevant for people
+    that want to implement their own #GtkWidgets. It is not necessary that
+    you understand the concepts here when all you want to do is use existing
+    widgets to create your own application.

+    <para>
+      The GTK event system is a cooperative event handling system. This means
+      that event recognizers need not know on their own if they should
+      recognize an event, but they communicate with other recognizers about
+      the process.

+  <title>Writing your own event recognizers</title>
+
+  <para>
+    The GTK developers generally discourage the writing of new event recognizers.
+    We are trying to provide a consistent feel to GTK applications and with all
+    the included event recognizers we think almost all the functionality needed
+    for event handling should be there for you to use.
+
+    Of course, every rule has its exceptions or you might just feel adventurous.
+    so should you see yourself in a situation where you need to write your own
+    event recognizers, here are some hints on how to do it.
