I couldn't find any app using it after asking around and googling either.

It has been superseded in GTK 2.2 by GdkDisplayPointerHooks anyway.
The functions to set frames on windows stopped being interesting
when the linux framebuffer port was dropped, many years ago.
Similar functionality may come back with client-side decorations
in the future.
Remove the --sync option and remove the possibility of backend-specific
commandline options altogether. --sync is being replaced by
a GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment variable.
The X11 backend exports a number of symbols which are _-prefixed
(so don't become part of the gdk api), but are not named in a
way to prevent accidental clashes between backends.
The one API change here is that the gdk_xid_table functions
have been removed - they did not server an purpose, since the
xid table only stores windows anyway, and we already have a
lookup-by-xid function for windows.
These functions were trivial g_spawn wrappers in all backends
except for X11, and they can be easily replaced by
g_app_info_create_for_commandline + GdkAppLaunchContext.
Commandline arguments should go away altogether, but this one
goes first, since we then don't need to worry about
_gdk_windowing_substitute_screen_number anymore.
This commit does a number of things:
- remove some dead wchar configury from configure.ac and gdkconfig.h
- repurpose gdkconfig.h as header that contains GDK_WINDOWING_foo
macros for each included backend, include it in gdk.h and install
it in $includedir instead of below $libdir
- drop the backend from the library names
- build libgdk-3.0.la as a convenience lib and include it in libgtk-3.0.la
It does not yet enable building multiple backends at the same time.
The old functions to get core pointer and devices list are gone as
well. This slice is entirely replaced internally by multidevice
handling and may just go.
This function will enable events for all devices of a given
GdkInputSource, either these available at the time of the call,
or these that are connected in the future.
Added gtk_cell_area_context_get_preferred_height_for_width and
width_for_height & gtk_cell_area_copy_context() to gtk.symbols
and gtk3-sections.txt (also finished up documenting those apis).
Move the guide into the 2-to-3 guide, since it is something
you have to do when porting from 2 to 3. Also add an example
for handling of temporary state changes and some more text
about color handling.
