Ah right, fullscreen... in bugzilla there is a promising patch. It still
needs some work, but that's something I hope to get in soon.

Yeah, the idea was to have a graphical editor for gtksourceview style

bit stalled these days and I don't think it will reach the top of the
list of things to do soon.

what happens :)
