Well, I think the basic idea why we didnt push for its inclusion
since back then was the GtkBuilder initiative [1], we want
libglade functionality wrapped into gtk+ proper and any special-cased
widget building code wrapped into the actual widget-class code itself.
I think it would be much better for everyone if we get GtkBuilder done
now and not evolve on libglade, my concern here is mostly based on
the diverse ways in which you can represent widgets in xml: libglade
might do it one way, GtkBuilder might want to do it another - then
with all kinds of glade files in circulation things will definitly
be harder to manage.
Cheers,
