"Touchscreen" really isn't an application issue. If an application 
changed the prelight behavior of GTK+ without being part of an 
isolated system, that would be quite broken.

GtkStateType is one of the decisions we've been pretty much stuck
with since the beginning of GTK+ (before I got involved, even)... it
would have required a lot of work at that GTK+-2.0 point to change
it, and we were pretty busy with other stuff then :-)

The different states of GtkStateType really don't have any other
meaning than "visual color" ... look at the use of ACTIVE for the
*unselected* tabs of GtkNotebook and the trough of the scrollbar.

Adding the toggle - 20 minutes.

Implementing features based on the toggle ... depends on the features
you want. Turning off all mouse-over effects based on the toggle is
probably a few hours, but other things have been mentioned.
