GTK 4.0

I have the impression that using an API through a language binding never really feels like a native API, except if the binding has been created manually and tailored for the target language (but in that case it could be seen as a wrapper library, not a mere binding).

It's one of the reasons why the Xamarin Studio (MonoDevelop) developers wrote their own text widget in C#, and gave up GtkTextView (also, and mainly, because GtkTextView sucks, although they could have contributed to GTK to improve it, but C/GObject is not their favorite hobby).
