This module provides support for Twisted to interact with the gtk3 mainloop
via Gobject introspection. This is like gi, but slightly slower and requires a
working $DISPLAY.
In order to use this support, simply do the following::
from twisted.internet import gtk3reactor
gtk3reactor.install()
If you wish to use a GApplication, register it with the reactor::
from twisted.internet import reactor
reactor.registerGApplication(app)
Then use twisted.internet APIs as usual.

# Newer versions of gtk3/pygoject raise a RuntimeError, or just break in a
# confusing manner, if the program is not running under X11. We therefore try
# to fail in a more reasonable manner, and check for $DISPLAY as a reasonable
# approximation of availability of X11. This is somewhat over-aggressive,
# since some older versions of gtk3/pygobject do work with missing $DISPLAY,
# but it's too hard to figure out which, so we always require it.
