Brief summary of the issues - Terrible font display. When the configured font is not found, it defaults to some proportional font whose identity I'm not sure of, exacerbated by the more serious issue that its display of proportional fonts is abysmal. - Toolbar problems. The toolbar has no background texture, and turning off tool-bar-mode simply does not work properly (with results that vary depending on if it's done interactively or in an init file, but are terrible in both cases) - Fringe overlaps scrollbar, along with some other scrollbar rendering weirdness. (I think that when the whole document is shown, especially given the fact that it _can_ be scrolled down, the scrollbar should simply be full rather than "blank") - No Meta key by default. The "Alt" key on my PC keyboard is interpreted as "Command" by the GNUstep library, and so becomes Super. The "Windows" key becomes Hyper, and is not configurable from within Emacs.
