This proposed change does the following:

- Ports DND target to use GTK reducing code size and adding extra text / image formats (such as .gif);
- Use gtk signals instead of gdk events (also to reduce code size);
- Simplifies geometry (sizing/positioning) with a more straightforward code (less special cases) ;
- Replaces (pointer and focus) grabbing with a gtk approach;
- Reworked frame extents (the wm extension to get decoration sizes) to reduce size and complexity;
- Simplified cursor changing;

In general it reduces code size and complexity and hands more work to gtk.

Important notice: As I could not test the code for handling web start and web applets because browsers do not support it anymore and java has removed "javaws", I took the liberty to remove the code. Will restore if necessary.

Please, mark it as WIP.
