We cannot just deprecate it as it contains (and will always contain)
several important classes (like XfceTitledDialog). The plan was to
move code which is only used in one application or library into that
application or library and out of libxfcegui4. That's what Nick is
planning, so I'm fine with it. I don't care if it's called libxfce4ui or
libxfcegui4 (although the latter is kinda inconsistent).
