Alright, so back to this. Without a constraint layout, the only option I have is to write a custom layout for this. It's annoying because I'm still not sure if I want to go with this layout in the first place. It looks good but does it work well? I don't know But - I need to be able to restrct widget position/sizing for cases like this: (this is just edited in inspector, yes, but I'm sure we'll have edge cases like this)

looks like it's another block when it comes to this UI, so switching gears for now. I switched the app to 50 SDK, since nightly is rather unstable right now (GTK switched to GtkSvg for all icons and is rather crashy rn, it will take time before it's usable) unfortunately, both vala and blueprint missed gnome 50 release window, so I had to revert a bunch of stuff (nothing user-visible, things like GtkPopoverBin instead of a homegrown one) other than that I made a few minor changes to the CRT filter, e.g. I switched the mask back to green/magenta - yeah, it's weird on my monitor, but RGB just doesn't look particularly good - the phosphor stripes are so wide that it often looks like a grid with progressive video. Also fixed an overflow - white areas in the corners could overflow and render incorrectly
