The gtk window is not limited for -display but also for compatmonitor / serial /paralel, but when -spice is used, the gtk window does not show at all. While you can force the window to show with -display gtk, but the *side effect* is the vga will be wired/connected to the gtk window (which seems to break things when gl and so on is enabled).
