How big is it in code? I know everybody hates libegg, but if it is
little I think it would be not too bad to cut&paste it for now, since I
*really* want this kind of thing to hit glib/gtk proper. This would
avoid yet-another-mini-lib that distro have to ship and then keep around
for a long time because any random third party project may have started
to depend on it.
Even if it stays an external lib, can you make sure to not use the gtk_*
namespace? This way we can eventually put it into gtk at a later point
without symbols conflicts.
