That still forces app authors to write their own XSettings client if they wish to fully restore the level of desktop integration present in GTK+ 3.8 (which I'm not above doing). Concrete example: xfce4-appearance-settings, "Settings" tab Observe GTK3 apps built against GTK+ 3.8 honor and respond to the preferences shown there. GTK3 apps built against GTK+ 3.10 do not. This kind of backward-compatibility breakage should be reserved for GTK4, after a sufficient period of deprecation in GTK3.
