Most custom widgets for GTK suffer from this problem. Its not a new
thing. The GTK docs and even the GTK "team" have never really
advocated that all widgets should draw themselves with gdk_draw_*(),
at least not to an extent that has resulted in this being the case.
The problem is that there really is a conflict here:
On the one hand:
1) the desire for a generic, powerful graphics language/API to
draw widgets with (e.g. Cairo)
and on the other
2) the desire to push all widget drawing through a themeable
layer which necessarily reduces the complexity of the graphics API
(e.g. gdk_draw_*())
I don't think that these can be reconciled.
