Well, the tests in testgtk are still important - we have to be sure
the widgets continue to work. demos/* doesn't have deprecated stuff.

The docs are useful I think - lots of apps still use the widgets, so
anyone hacking those apps will need them. Also I think it's less
confusing if the docs say "deprecated, use foo instead" rather than
simply not existing...
