I suggest for the duration of GTK3: hard-code the desired values for
GNOME in gnome-settings-daemon, restore the XSettings in GTK, leave the
GtkSettings deprecated but restore the integration in relevant widgets.

That way GNOME forces their desired menu/toolbar style on GtkMenu /
GtkToolbar based apps without breaking desktop integration of those
apps in other desktop environments.

Burn it all in GTK4.

Just for the record:
