My concern is not so much that GtkSheet is too heavy or in some way
bloated for GTK+, I just think that it is a bit out of place.  It seems
like a nice widget, but realistically it doesn't seem very applicable to
almost any applications that I can think of that rely upon GTK+.  For
those rare applications that need something like this, they can just
link to whatever lib in GTK+Extra provides it with very little extra
trouble.
