All my applications I create use fpGUI directly. UTF-8 is fully
supported in fpGUI, so that's not a problem.  I simply test the
various (GTK and GTK2) LCL widget sets every now and again. 99.9% of
the time I use the Lazarus IDE compiled with GTK1, simply because it's
more stable for me, and the editor has no flicker.

One day LCL-fpGUI widgetset will be complete, then this whole point
should be moot. ;-)
