This is a resources issue, most of the existing developers are focused
on Linux, and they have no resources/time to focus on Windows
development.
I have contributed several improvements to improve the Windows support
and I have felt more than welcome to do so.

So this is not obnoxious at all, if the people with the focus and time
actually helped, the situation would be a lot better, what you can't
ask is that the development of Gtk+ to be stalled until someone shows
up and helps with the Windows or Mac OS X port to make a given change.

So yeah, I totally support Matthias here, if you want a better
situation, feel free to JFDI.
