GUI applications writing garbage to stdout/stderr

So when I talked about GTK, I meant the whole GNOME stack, like GLib, gvfs, st, clutter, mutter, gnome-shell, gstreamer, etc. I guess not all of these parts behave the same currently? I see a lot of "garbage" from them. But I also see some GTK warnings, in F21, and I don't have development builds. This is an example from today (I pruned it manually a bit):

$ journalctl -a --since=today | grep -iE '(warning|error|critical|debug|obsol|deprec)'
