Sounds perfect, as long as we can get it on the stable branch (i.e. if
Moz has a "lots o' new features" branch after 1.0 is out, then GTK 2
on that branch doesn't do us any good, since it'll be broken off and
on for who knows how long).

Tell us if we need to beat up anyone that's failing to leave you
alone. ;-)

Perfect.
