I see your point, but the way it was would be a catch all, so individual 
handling isn't needed.
The idea behind this was that in this catch all the interface raises an 
exception no matter what fatal gdk error happened, the IDE handles it and 
takes proper action like ask to save (or of that isn't possible, save to 
recoveryfiles). It isn't the case now, but it can.
After this exeption is handled, it is over and the application exits.

I might be wrong here, I'll recheck. And I'll also look how usable gdk is 
at that point (after the error, but before exit). If we can't do anything 
like showing dialogs or saving files or so, we need the push and pops. 
Otherwise I think I'll place them between IFDEFs for a while (or so).
