I would love to see this on gtk.org as an installable executable. Right 
now the pages:

  http://www.gtk.org/download/win32.php
  http://www.gtk.org/download/win64.php

only allow downloading of separate packages. What I wished we had years 
ago when I was developing on Windows was an executable which installed 
GTK+ on the system for all apps (so I didn't have to package gtk+ inside 
my own project).

If there is consent amongst the team and this is available, I can set up 
the gtk.org pages for this.
