Hey All,

We were talking about the move to LibPeas for a few reasons:

1. Remain consistent with a plugin system.
2. Better performance
3. Force plugs to be GTK3 (though I imagine Sergey thinks this is a bug
rather than a feature)
4. There's an issue with using plug/socket and Clutter, more specifically
NavigationBox which we're going to want to widely employ for consistent
touch and animation support in the future.

I'm sure there are more benefits to Peas, but those are the ones I can
think of off the top of my head :)
