Description

The layouting page starts with the following introduction:

While many GUI toolkits require you to precisely place widgets in a window, using absolute positioning, GTK+ uses a different approach.

I don't think that statement is true. All GUI toolkits I've worked with till now always provided at least some kind of abstract layout management.

Research direction

Read the introduction in layout.txt and verify the claim about GUI toolkits and absolute positioning against the surrounding layout documentation. Revise the introduction so its comparison is accurate and consistent with the tutorial; done means the opening statement no longer makes an unsupported generalization.
