+      <para>
+        In GTK 4, the two roles of a standalone toplevel window
+        and of a popup that is placed relative to a parent window
+        have been separated out into two interfaces, #GdkToplevel
+        and #GtkPopup.
+      </para>
+      <para>
+        Surfaces implementing these interfaces are created with
+        gdk_surface_new_toplevel() and gdk_surface_new_popup(),
+        respectively, and they are presented on screen using
+        gtk_toplevel_present() and gdk_popup_present(). The
+        present() functions take parameters in the form of an
+        auxiliary layout struct, #GdkPopupLayout or
+        #GdkToplevelLayout.
+      </para>
+      <para>
+        If your code is dealing directly with surfaces, you may
+        have to change it to call the API in these interfaces,
+        depending on whether the surface you are dealing with
+        is a toplevel or a popup.

+      <para>
+        As part of this reorganization, X11-only concepts such
+        as sticky or keep-below have been removed. If you need
+        to use them on your X11 windows, you will have to set
+        the corresponding X11 properties (as specified in the
+        EWMH) yourself.
+      </para>
+      <para>
+        A number of minor API cleanups have happened in GdkSurface
+        as well. For example, gdk_surface_input_shape_combine_region()
+        has been renamed to gdk_surface_set_input_region().
