Let me continue the "Memo.Lines.Add seems to be slow with Lazarus 1.6" - TextHint discussion:
1.) Unfortunately it's not possible to create the custom paint event "PaintAfterInterface" for all TWinControls on Win32. So it doesn't make sense to implement it.
2.) Some of Lazarus developers don't want to delete the TextHint emulation.
-> For now I rewrote the TextHint emulation a little bit. I hope it's better since I at least decoupled the properties from the emulation.

The good news is that GTK 3.2 also supports such a thing natively, which means that maybe we can move this to widgetset code in the future.

Can we have Italic style of textHint , like before? In e.g. IDE filter boxes.

WinAPI doesn't support changing text hint font - it is not italic. AFAIK "TextHint" e.g. in Konqueror navigation bar on Linux isn't italic either. So no unless you bring very good arguments for it.

I originally made it Italic, because native TextHint on Windows "looked" Italic to me ...
