That would be nice. I think the biggest stumbling block is GTK 
testing/support. Matt has been working mostly in Windows, and I've done 
a bit of testing/debugging (though not much) on the Mac, but no one has 
gotten beyond trying it out on GTK (and last I heard, it didn't work 
there). We really need someone with enough interest in it on GTK to do a 
bit of debugging.

I suspect it won't take much -- it's a rendering issue, once it's 
solved, I suspect the rest of it will "just work".

I think you're right -- that should be pretty natural with FC2, though 
not hard with FC1 either (see the "Group" object.

maybe, maybe not, but in any case simply using it for a real project is 
great!
