Its funny how things sometimes come to me right before I fall asleep at
night or in the morning before I am completely awake. Things that seem
obvious in retrospect.

It finally dawned on me that I can just load the object from the
ClutterScript and create and add text actors to it as I am traversing my
result set in code. So I guess pursuing this clutter script thing for my
gui is doable. Although, I am still curious if anyone wants to express
reservations about using ClutterScript.

thnx
