This would be really useful for a couple of projects. For example, Stallman
wants a Gnome version of Emacs, but the Emacs X11 code is tightly tied to
Xt. Using GtkXt would allow a partial port: the menus would be Gtk+ menus,
but the text widget and minibuffer would remain Xt widgets.

This would be tasty, to say the least.

Cheers,
