And I thought I am the only one how misses Raleigh :/

And yes, being an xfce user I even filed one of those tickets.

As I don't have the time to fix issues, I guess I have to live with
how the state of GTK3 is (GNOME centric).
I am already considering Notepad++ on Wine as an alternative to Geany
on GTK3 once they migrate.
While it seems to work stable, text rendering performance
seems to suffer from API emulation.
