Both ruby and vala make an effort to provide nice syntactic support
for gtk code, so that it looks like a natural part of the language.
The OCaml code from the gtk2 tutorial looks very C-ish, whereas I was
hoping for something closer to a GUI DSL. Jacques Garrigue has pointed
out that there is actually both a low-level and a high-level API, so
I've probably just been put off by the low-level code.
