Wouldn't this be better handled as simply a modification for GtkWindow
that is present when compiling with FB support?

After all, when you create a window as GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL not
GTK_WINDOW_POPUP, you expect it to get decorations. This would
make it easier to have programs that you can test on X and later
move to the framebuffer.

Port specific widgets, if we need any should go in:

 gtk+/gtk/linux-fb/

Which we can handle as a convenience library like gtk+/gdk/linux-fb.
