<p>So . . . it's not "entirely" true but sounds like it is "mostly"
true. So, "mostly" I don't want apps on my system that don't
adhere to my chosen display configuration - and I don't want to
have to muck around to get them to use it either. It's a nuisance
and breaks the consistent look of my system. <br>
</p>
<p>Forgive me, but I just switched to Linux from Mac OS X a little
over a year ago after 11 YEARS on Macs. I don't EVER want to go
back to a system that FORCES me into someone else's idea of what
my OS should look like. That's one of the reasons I switched to
Linux - I can configure it to look the way I want. And with XFCE I
have found it is quick and easy to do so - I can change the entire
look every day if I want with the click of a button (thanks, XFCE
Theme Manager). So, when I come upon an app that ignores my
settings, I get bent out of shape. The Mac OS is a perfect example
of an operating system you cannot theme outside of changing the
wallpaper. I don't want to go back to that.</p>
<p>Thanks for listening and thanks to all the developers who make
Linux, and specifically, Xubuntu/XFCE possible. :-)<br>

That's not entirely true. GNOME apps use the chosen GTK3 them,
most of them just don't apply the wanted window title bar and don't
allow to view a menu bar. However, even some (?) GNOME apps, at least
one app, Evolution, is using the same window title bar and provides the
menu bar, as non-GNOME apps do.
