Any idea about the addressing the issue with the fill-level? Just disabling it
is not so nice, as those scales look then different than others. What about:

void              gtk_scale_set_center (GtkScale        *scale,
                                        gdouble          value);

Although I don't know if adding API is the right way to do it, as there might be
themes where this has no visible effect at all.
