Description
haskell-gi seems to be better maintained than gtk2hs is. I think we should consider switching to haskell-gi.
There are some questions:
* Is cross-platform support of haskell-gi good enough? In particular how well is it supported on Windows?
* Is the extra runtime dependency (on GIRepository) a problem? Hopefully no.
* Are the bigger build dependencies an issue? Probably no.
The transition to haskell-gi means we're going to port ThreadScope from GTK 2 to GTK 3, which is not quite trivial.
