Hm, Oroborus will definetely get some sort of a plugin interface, mainly for
window-menus etc... (this will go into a plugin, so oroborus itself does not
use GTK but the plugin does.)
The question is, should the window drawing things also be a plugin, yes I
think so, because then you could create some "nicer" borders, like borders
using gtk or imlib for example (transparent titlebars, like macosX has for
example.
