I'm sorry. I don't remember where you read this. I know that the style I
mentioned is the one in Gtk, but in Bonobo they definitely use a style
almost like what you are talking about.

I think we agreed to use the Gtk style for this, but I can't find where that
decision is recorded, nor where the Bonobo style is documented.
