This will make things interesting.
We have better replacements in ClutterActor, that do The Right Thing™
instead of deferring control and requiring reimplementation in every
single container actor.
The minimum preferred size of a Flow layout manager is the size of a
column or a row, as the whole point of the layout policy enforced by
the Flow layout manager is to reflow when needed.
If an actor using a LayoutManager has attributes like margin or padding
then it'll have to shave them from the available allocation before
passing it to the LayoutManager::allocate() implementation. Layout
managers should, thus, not assume that the origin of the allocation is
in (0, 0), but take into account that the passed ActorBox might have a
different origin.

If the FlowLayout layout manager wasn't allocated the same size it
requested then it should blow its caches and recompute the layout
with the given allocation size.
Store a back pointer of the layout manager inside the container using
the GObject instance data. This introduces a change in the implementation
of ClutterLayoutManager, though it's still binary compatible.
The FlowLayout fails to provide a preferred size in case no sizing is
specified on one axis. It should, instead, have the preferred size of
the sum of its children, depending on the orientation property.

Fix a copy-and-paste thinko where the cell size was computed using the
minimum size instead of the natural size. For actors with a minimum size
of zero, like Textures, this implied always a zero allocation.

We need to add the row-spacing value when calculating the y position for lines
of actors in horizontal flowing layouts.
Similarly we need to add the col-spacing value when calculating the x posution
for actors in vertical flowing layouts.
FlowLayout should compute the correct height for the assigned width when
in horizontal flow, and the correct width for the assigned height when
in vertical flow. This means pre-computing the number of lines inside
the get_preferred_width() and get_preferred_height(). We can then cache
the computed column width and row height, cache them inside the layout
and then use them when allocating the children.
When changing the orientation of a FlowLayout, the associated
container should also change its request mode. A horizontally
flowing layout has a height depending on the width, since it
will reflow vertically; similarly, a vertically reflowing layout
will have a width depending on the height.
The :wrap property is not implemented, and mostly useless: the
FlowLayout is a reflowing grid. This means that if it receives
less than the preferred width or height in the flow direction
then it should always reflow.
Use the column and row size to align each child; with :homogeneous
set to TRUE, or with children with the same size, the FlowLayout
will behave like a reflowing grid.
FlowLayout is a layout manager that arranges its children in a
reflowing line; the orientation controls the major axis for the
layout: horizontal, for reflow on the Y axis, and vertical, for
reflow on the X axis.
