+/** @file
+    This extension defines an interface that can be used in LV2 plugins and
+    hosts to create GTK2 GUIs for plugins. The GUIs will be plugins that
+    will reside in shared object files in a LV2 bundle and be referenced in 
+    the RDF file using the triples
+<pre>    
+    <http://my.plugin> <http://ll-plugins.nongnu.org/lv2/ext/gtk2gui#gui> 
<http://my.plugingui>
+    <http://my.plugingui> 
<http://ll-plugins.nongnu.org/lv2/ext/gtk2gui#binary> <mygui.so>
+</pre>
+    where <http://my.plugin> is the URI of the plugin, <http://my.plugingui> is
+    the URI of the plugin GUI and <mygui.so> is the relative URI to the shared 
+    object file. While it is possible to have the plugin GUI and the plugin in 
+    the same shared object file it is probably a good idea to keep them 
+    separate so that hosts that don't want GUIs don't have to load the GUI 
code.
+    
+    It's entirely possible to have multiple GUIs for the same plugin, or to 
have
+    the GUI for a plugin in a different bundle from the actual plugin - this
+    way people other than the plugin author can write plugin GUIs independently
+    without editing the original plugin bundle. If a GUI is in a separate 
bundle
+    the first triple above should be in that bundle's manifest.ttl file so that
+    hosts can find the GUI when scanning the manifests.
+    
+    Note that the process that loads the shared object file containing the GUI
+    code and the process that loads the shared object file containing the 
+    actual plugin implementation does not have to be the same. There are many
+    valid reasons for having the plugin and the GUI in different processes, or
+    even on different machines. This means that you can _not_ use singletons
+    and global variables and expect them to refer to the same objects in the
+    GUI and the actual plugin. The function callback interface defined in this
+    header is all you can expect to work.
+    
+    Since the LV2 specification itself allows for extensions that may add 
+    new types of data and configuration parameters that plugin authors may 
+    want to control with a GUI, this extension allows for meta-extensions that
+    can extend the interface between the GUI and the host. See the
+    instantiate() and extension_data() callback pointers for more details.
+    
+    Note that this extension is NOT a Host Feature. There is no way for a 
plugin
+    to know whether the host that loads it supports GUIs or not, and the plugin
+    must ALWAYS work without the GUI (although it may be rather useless unless
+    it has been configured using the GUI in a previous session).
+    
+    GUIs written to this specification do not need to be threadsafe - the 
+    functions defined below may only be called in the same thread as the GTK
+    main loop is running in.
