Re: GTK 3 support status

I don't really understand what max-width-chars would be useful for.
Can't you set a "natural" size for a widget instead of a "natural" max
char width? If I want to ellipsize it won't do me any good if
"iiii..." is the same as "mmmm...".

I can see there is gtk_set_size_request for setting minimum width,
gtk_window_set_default_size for setting maximum ("natural") width (if
I understand correctly) but for windows. What can I use to set the
maximum or "natural" size for a widget?
