@jheinen Any reason not to merge this?

Shouldn't the problem better be fixed in Gtk? For animations within Gtk widgets double buffering is useful to avoid flickering.

The problem is that Gtk appears to be removing gtk_widget_set_double_buffered, so I don't think the Gtk will be fixing this specific API. Rather we should see if another API would be more helpful here.
