Indeed. We wanted to decide on this earlier but I guess the issue was lost
somewhere in the middle.

The general consensus seems to be towards Tom's version. I have to agree
too, it is much simpler to link directly to Scintilla rather than
GtkScintilla, especially given that GtkScintilla isn't maintained anymore.
Trouble is, I can't get Tom's version to build on *nix here. I tried a
couple of times earlier, but didn't really get anywhere. I'll replace my
version with Tom's as soon as we get it to work on *nix. If Steph can
confirm it works on Windows, she can commit that too.
This shouldn't affect any of the end-users in any way. They won't even
notice that the backend between the alpha-beta releases are different;
except for the fact that they need one less dependency (gtkscintilla).
