I thought gtk required gl anyway these days, doesn't it? it's quite minor imho, we could lower it to a debug message during init, and a critical if GL scanout is actually being used and EGL init failed.

Ok, I would keep it under the GDK_IS_X11_DISPLAY condition, not necessary to call it here when using gtkglarea.

Yes, on x11 at least, iirc, you must have a realized X window.

It would, but unfortunately, gtkglarea doesn't use EGL on X11 (egl is needed to import the dmabuf). So we need this weird EGL on top of drawingarea code.
