I think there is too much unwrap in winit and it could benefit from a healty dose of Results. Thus I'm opening this issue to spark discussion on:

• Is such a change desirable? (I vote "yes".)
• To people knowing more about winit internals: Is it feasible? (If we can only get rid of panics in half the places, it might be more confusing to users than just a "catch the panic if you care" policy.)
• If yes, start a PR converting a handful of currently non-Result-returning functions to return Result. (/me volunteers.)
• Decide on when to release this. Seems to make sense to not include this change in 0.20, but maybe 0.21?
• Pretty please use the codename "Don't panic :)" for that release. :)
