Resize grips were introduced for GNOME 3.0, before we had any of the
"new GNOME app" features like invisible borders and CSD. With OS X 10.6
and 10.7, Apple has replaced the classic grips in their applications
with invisible borders as well.
New GNOME app designs don't use resize grips anymore and the new
default theme for GTK+, Adwaita, disables them entirely by forcing their
width and height to 0.
They're past their time. Remove the code to support them. This can
always be reverted if some app relies on them.
GtkFlowBox is a container that its children in a reflowing
grid, which can be oriented horizontally or vertically.
It is similar to GtkListBox in that the children can
be sorted and filtered, and by requiring a dedicated child
widget type, GtkFlowBoxChild. It is similar to GtkTreeView
in that is supports a full set of selection modes, including
rubberband selection.
This is the culmination of work that has happened in the
egg-list-box module, and earlier in libegg. The origins of
this code are the EggSpreadTable in libegg, which was written
by Tristan van Berkom. It was moved to egg-list-box and
renamed EggFlowBox by Jon McCann, and I gave it some finishing
touched in the flowbox-improvements branch of that module.
It's too close to the release so we'll keep _set_menu() around, but
deprecate it, pointing to the new API. It will be removed (and the name
reused) before the 3.6.0 release.

This is a special-purpose button that can be used together with
GPermission objects to control the sensitivity of system settings.
Suitable permission objects can e.g. be obtained from PolicyKit.

At the same time, change the library sonames for -3.0 to just -3.
This is necessary since the 2.99 releases installed libraries like
libgtk-3.0.so.0.9903.0, and we want to prevent the library version
number from jumping back. So 3.0 will have libgtk-3.so.0.0.0.
