I happen to find the Athena widget OK, but I see what you mean.

Yes, but only if your locale is using utf-8.
But IIRC Emacs doesn't take advantage of it, because the Xaw-fontset
handling seemed to have some problems at times, so we disabled it (after
I installed it, thinking it worked). Actually, maybe it wasn't completely
disabled, and works as long as you explicitly set a fontset in Emacs's
Xresources. Can't remember.

I happen to find the multi-display problem of Gtk pretty serious (I use
multi-display mode fairly often, and in those cases I always need to close
the X connection without killing Emacs).
