From what I understand Gtk+ does not support MDI in the MS Windows sense
of the term.  But Windows.Forms does have support for this type of
interface.

If Windows.Forms will be implemented using Gtk, should I avoid MDI when
writing an app, or will MDI support in the Windows sense ever be added? 
In other words, how will the case of a Windows.Forms MDI app be handled
on Mono+Gtksharp implementation of Windows.Forms?

Thanks,
Joe
