If we do that, then in my experience this bug will never be fixed in
GTK, and we will be stuck maintaining this awful hack until the end of
time.

It's okay to add such a knob assuming the GTK bug still isn't fixed
approaching the release of Emacs 29, but not now, when that release is
still several years away.
