Well, the biggest problem I see here would be that you won't be able to use
SDL anymore for cross platform development... AFAIK, there does NOT exist
any 'GtkSDLWidget' nor a Windows SDL 'class' or whatever it's called to
embed an SDL application in a Widget on Unix or Windows.

And the GL full screen thing won't work anymore either using native widgets.
