just a small add-on, fresh from the commit factory:

  the tooltip-markup property now has a sister called tooltip-text,
  which will set the tooltip as plain text, escaping the eventual
  markup entities; if you're setting tooltips on widgets from external
  data sources (file names, desktop entries, whatever) you won't have
  to pass through g_markup_escape_text() first.

  both the tooltip-markup and the tooltip-text properties also have
  accessors. finally, along with gtk_tooltip_set_markup() mentioned
  below, now there's a gtk_tooltip_set_text() as well.

kudos to kris for implementing this rocking API for tooltips: it was
sorely needed and he did a wonderful job. if you're coming to GUADEC
this year, be sure to buy kris a pint!

ciao,
 Emmanuele.
