The logo I've made has to be understood as a placeholder for a better one ;-)

The drop-down issue has been an open question for 10 years! To manage 
correctly drop-down, the widget system must have the concept of widgets stack 
(widgets have a z-order and higher ones receive events first), but libgag now 
has the one of widgets bag (widgets are at the same level and are not allowed 
to overlap). Of course, we can imagine an intermediate step with just two 
levels. But anyway it's not that trivial.

Have a nice day,

Steph
