Registered by

Modern GTK apps use the HeaderBar widget for the titlebar and toolbar combined. This creates a sleek, streamlined design that saves a lot on vertical space.

This should be a target for Nexulockr 5.0, since there would be a lot of new code introduced for drawing the HeaderBar. It would be inappropriate to make such sudden changes after the beta freeze.
GTK 3.10 and below (Currently Ubuntu 14.10) don't properly support headerbars, so detection code should be used and fallback to the standard toolbar + Titlebar setup currently used on systems running GTK 3.10 and below.
