Description
I'm working with @SimonDanisch to get GLMakie to draw into a Gtk4 window. This branch has a couple of changes that I had to make to GLMakie to get a plot to appear.
Here I just added a try/catch to ignore that error. There's probably a more correct approach.

In to_screen_postprocessor(), I added an argument that lets you set default_ID. The default is 0, so GLMakie works fine, but in my code I've hard coded this to 2, which works on my laptop. It would be better to query this number at the beginning of rendering. I suspect if we try to have multiple windows this will become important.
