your claim may be 100% true, it probably is, but it doesn't affect my
bug report.

I'm claiming that from a app-developer point of view, the documentation
could be improved such that coding will be more productive.

The documentation is there to facilitate app-developers to make good use
of gtk, and exploit all the possibilities of gtk in the right way. The
better the documentation, the better the app-developers can make use of
gtk, the more and better gtk apps we will get. Documentation is *very*
important, and every improvement of the documentation is thus an
important improvement.

regards,
        Olivier
