I think it could be actually directed to GTK rather than to Gnome itself. Gnome lately assumes everyone uses it on a mobile platform touch screen; fine, there are many desktop environments so I'll use a different one, but when this assumption comes from GTK now Houston we have a problem since a huge number of Linux desktop applications use it. I don't have anything against Gnome and actually sorta liked it on tablets, but the way GTK devs ignore every standard drives me absolutely insane. They made a sudden paradigm shift so that a plethora of desktop apps today compile with a GUI library that wants to be run on mobile. Sorry, that is not the way to go: want to add mobile functionality? Great! I fully support it, but please don't enforce it. What about a flag to be #defined at compile time and used only if the app code completely honors it? I hope somebody will create a patch or something to undo that behavior.
