it is a widely accepted rule to shape names with the usage site in mind.
Especially this means, that we use the singular form for all kinds
of collections and assortments.
Thus, the namespace should be called "widget" not "widgets",
because at usage site this becomes gui::widget::TimelineWidget
Likewise for "dialogs" and "pannels"
Our GUI shutdown logic looks rather confused. Why the hell do
some widgets "unregister" themselves in a dtor. This should never
be necessary. Maybe it's a leftover from C-style programming
and obsolete now, after the switch to GDLmm
trying to track down where these messages
GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion G_IS_OBJECT (object) failed
are coming from. These appear when iconifying panels.
the rules are:
- our own headers go before any library headers
- all headers need to be spelled relative to include root
- ensure that gtk is always included via gui/gtk-base.hpp
The pkg-config of GDL advises to include the GDL subdir,
which in turn contains a directory "gdl" with the headers.
This is fine, because it makes this name switch work
painless. Thus, please just #include <gdl/gdl-whatever.h>
