Can you explain what exactly doesn't work the way you want it to work on Ubuntu?
I don't find the code too atrocious, but I'm trying to understand what it attempts to do that isn't happening already.

My instinctive reaction is that we should report this to Ubuntu and get it fixed there, IFF it actually is a bug and not just a misunderstanding of how the APIs are supposed to work. We've had plenty of those as I am by no means an expert when it comes to gtk…

Don't get me wrong, I'm not against pulling this, I just want to understand it a bit better.
