The image problem being fixed for GTK+-2.0.

The specific I'm thinking of are:

  - The gdk-pixbuf library for loading images
  - A stock icon facility to allow loading (themeable) images for 
    various purposes
  - A default icon theme (probably justt Tigert's icons from GNOME)
  - GtkMessageDialog, for displaying messages with an appropriate icon

Some people are also working furiously on a filesel replacement,
though I don't know if that is going to make GTK+-2.0 or not.
