Summary: Use standard Gtk About dialog

Initial Comment:
Not really a bug so I file my suggestion here that Synfig would do well to use 
the standard Gtk About dialog.  
It may seem trivial but the standard dialog means that little bit less 
maintenance, that little bit more consistency, it provides a suitable place for 
a longer list of authors and other contributors such as translators and 
documentation.  The standard Gtk About dialog also encourages good habits such 
as including a description of what the program is actually "About" namely 2-D 
Animation.  

Hope you will consider this minor suggestion and take it as an opportunity to 
cut out one more bit of custom code and save that little bit of maintenance for 
the drawing and animation I'm sure the users care most about.

I personally like the existing dialog, would rather fix the problems with
it than replace it with a very unsexy dialog. It is used for the splash
screen too, so we would have to add new code to go with the unsexy standard
dialog. I'm open to hearing what everyone else thinks.
