1) GTK: You can't really use GTK inside an extension other then for
extension preferences (which is a valid case)
2) Duplicates: Yeah forgot to tell you about that in the last mail
while doing a review check for dupes and if there is one don't approve
it either get both authors to work together or if one gets abounded
let the new user become the owner (i.e send mail wait two weeks if he
does not respond transfer ownership).
3) Should probably add that sync I/O should be avoided because it
blocks the whole compositor process.
