That's being worked apparently but we still have no mono GTK3 bindings
in the archive and it seems suboptimal to land a new stack of untested
bindings and switch one of the default applications over to those in one
cycle, the cycle being a LTS one.

Not sure how active is the mono desktop side, there are not lot of
softwares being written using this stack nowadays around GNOME for sure,
the LTS getting support for 5 years it seems like we would be better off
not supporting mono for that time...
