Actually the theme I'm using gets broken by my Arch Linux install, at
least with

[rocketmouse at archlinux ~]$
pacman -Q libxfce4ui libxfce4ui 4.12.1-1

and perhaps earlier. Regarding standards for versioning major releases
should be backwards compatible, respl. not break anything, but actually
Xfce does break things within a major release.

My recommendation is to use openbox and/or JWM for those who prefer
GTK, as I do. Those who are used to Qt might consider to use LXQt (resp.
Razor-Qt).
