Just FYI, gtk4 (compared to gtk3) dropped all responsibility for 
window placement (an application window opens in the same screen 
position where it was last closed). One of the devs told me it's 
because this type of thing should be handled by the OS's window 
manager (which, truthfully, it should). However, there is no 
window manager in Linux that will properly handle window position 
on a multi-monitor set-up.

There were other things that got dropped, but I don't recall what 
they were ATM. This one thing was enough for me to steer away 
from it.

And if you're interested in an OOP approach to GtkD (3, 
naturally) you might check out https://gtkdcoding.com. I put it 
all in the public domain, so feel free to use anything you find 
there.
