glade has its own gladevcp, and its xml code is something I've been 
unable to make work. Its dependence on gtk-3.80, the last the the gtk2 
stuffs results in dependency's that aren't satisfied even on wheezy. IMO 
gnome thru glade and its ilk under the bus on purpose, and gtk-3 has 
never grown a similar capability. They've had years to do it.

That explains why I'd like to take a walk thru tk's xwidgits and see if I 
can locally add what should have been done in the first place. I may 
fail, but I'll not know till I try. But I want to know I'm working on 
the right code first.
