Is it possible to turn off the Launch Heavy LEDs through software?
Reported at https://github.com/pop-os/keyboard-configurator/issues/195 - I get a failure from dfu-programmer trying to update using the alternate update method with the keyboard-configurator app (because fwupdmgr won't update it because of the firmware bug that the new firmware addresses).

Pop _OS Cosmic Desktop to Make Use of Iced Rust Toolkit Rather Than GTK
Good. I bought Darter Pro recently and had to - business as usual under Linux - compile this and tweak that. Via things like their keyboard configurator[1] I was exposed me to Rust's GTK bindings. It wasn't pretty: the mismatch between the obviously object-oriented GTK and Rust which doesn't do (and doesn't want to) OOP was glaring. I understand the appeal of Rust very well, and I'm happy they write their drivers and (parts of) firmware in it, but it's about as fit for OOP-based GUI as Go and Erlang. Which is to say - not very much.

Scandinavian letters on Launch keyboard?
That's exactly what it's meant for, but the frontend of the configurator app doesn't seem to list those characters. You may consider opening an issue and relating to this one: https://github.com/pop-os/keyboard-configurator/issues/105

Launch Configurator and extended "F" keys
Probably a good issue to open here: https://github.com/pop-os/keyboard-configurator
- Does System76 Launch support macros?
- Any stable crate to develop a cross-platform Rust desktop app?

GTK and custom themes - what really happened
That said, I'm not totally convinced about SixtyFPS today. There are some other interesting options that are suitable GUI toolkits for Rust. Such as OrbTk and Iced. Each toolkit is approaching the GUI space in a different way, so it'll be interesting to see where we end up in a few more years. QML-esque SixtyFPS, ECS-based OrbTk, Elm-based Iced, and a few others out there.

Pop should join this new GTK fork
What's written in this article isn't the development of a GTK fork, but some reasoning for exploring alternatives to GTK. There aren't very many suitable candidates in this space, but Rust GUI toolkits like Iced have potential. Personally, I would add that OrbTk is also a suitable candidate.

Any stable crate to develop a cross-platform Rust desktop app?
I use orbtk, it is pretty easy to use, has an active dev team, works on windows mac and linux, and cross compiling from linux to windows is also easy with it. It is still pretty beta, but depending on the project you need it could work. (https://github.com/redox-os/orbtk)

Cross platform native guis in rust
Orbtk is an option. The default is backend is orbraq, which uses OrbClient. OrbClient will use SDL on Linux, and on Redox it should be a "pure" rust experience.
