In any case, the question "Does GtkBuilder call gtk_widget_set_name(widget, "name_from_xml_file")" still stands. It can be important since it will break widgets which set name in a constructor or before (some do, e.g. to modify cursor color). And it can become actually important now, since until glade-3 it was rather impossible to use fancy non-stock widgets. Or, if other code relies on "widget name" being name from xml, setting the name to modify style will break that other code.
