That video is embedded in this page:
  http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/~lindsec/secondary-selection.html

The end of which has "Feedback" section containing:

    Clearly, we need some place where people can express their opinions and
    experiences with trying out my system. Initially, I propose we meet in
    the Usenet Group comp.os.linux.x, but I am also on the lookout for some
    web forum that could host discussions, so watch this space!

So, Charles Lindsey are you reading this? Maybe you could release the
source code of your gtk changes instead of only providing a set of
shared libs for Ubuntu 14.04.
