No, because I can make a backdrop window WITH borders (they look all funny
too, but that's another story).  The two modes are orthogonal to each
other.  I'm talking about creating GTK widgets which truely have no
borders or other embellishments to them (like an Amiga boolean gadget,
with all of its image and IntuiText pointers set to NULL).

It'd be easier if I just use a gtk_drawing_area for my purposes, though.
While slightly more difficult to program, it actaully gives me a bit more
freedom.
