Bug Description
A lot of applications that are currently shipping in vivid display gtk deprecation warnings. While this is useful to developers, it is a nuisance for users who are powerless to fix these issues.
For certain graphical applications, printing warnings on the console isn't much of an issue, but for others, such as gedit, it's annoying and inelegant.
Here are a few examples:
$ ubuntu-bug sdasdasd
dpkg-query: no packages found matching sdasdasd
Gtk-Message: GtkDialog mapped without a transient parent. This is discouraged.
$ gedit

sys:1: Warning: The property GtkButton:use-stock is deprecated and shouldn't be used anymore. It will be removed in a future version.

Would appreciate at least trying to do the same for 2.44.1. The fact that some GNOME apps (brasero) aren't fixed should strengthen an argument in favour.

(there would be no problem SRUing a fix)

Yeah, let's disable them for the release. Developers can still opt in to showing them while developing an application by setting G_ENABLE_DIAGNOSTIC to 1.
