Openbox has a lot OOP-style code. Yes, he works fine, but I think, this 
is technically wrong - C Programming Language has not native OOP 
support. Yes, we have a GObject and other tools, but (imho) this is the 
bad solution.

C++ Standard Library has a lot of GLib features, and in this case, we 
can forget about GLib.
