Because on GNU/Linux this provides a means for testing resizing of the
inner frame under the most heavy environmental conditions: It has to
deal with a wrapping menu, tool and tab bar all in one, something I can
test only on Windows otherwise.

IIUC no one uses --with-x-toolkit=no or --without-x builds either, so
this argument doesn't count. But why even care about removing things
that are not broken as long as
- there exist builds that are severely broken in many regards like our
default GNU/Linux build,
- there exist largely untested builds like pgtk whose merging-in would
in no way interfere with any of the toolkits whose support people
despise,
- removing special Motif code might break other parts as well (we would
have to continue to work with its WM hints, for example)?
