I think our use of glade is historical.
It just made sense to somebody (not me, my guess is Christian).
I personally have no issue with moving away from glade as RAD tool as I
find it very cumbersome myself.
Note, however, that it will also mean writing a lot of code that is
currently hidden behind those glade XML files.
OTOH moving to a WIP RAD tool is also not such a smart idea, maybe. But
that depends on the maturity of cambalanche, which I cannot judge myself
right now as I have never tried it.

Hello Martin,
Note that migration from gtk3 to gtk4 especially for gnunet-gtk is not
trivial: We use libglade, which does not exist for gtk4.
We will need to decide if we want to migrate to something like

something different entirely.
Why can't we use the proper GObject concept like other gnome application
does? E.g. GNOME Settings, Nautilus, etc. which can handle the
properties, and signals in a structured way.
Thanks. Regards
