|   Windows/Dialogs (called 'Forms' or 'Windows')
|   Containers
|   Basic (labels and buttons)
|   Data Entry

Will this widget dissappear if you have a GTK+-only version? 
Btw Damon: I also have GTk+-only package of the glade 0.5.3 at same location
where the gnome version is. I just noticed that the download page
points to an old GTk+ only version.

I don't know how it looks, but a alphabetical list sounds nice.

I think so. Personally I'd like to see the omnipresent favorites
thingy I proposed. Dermot's idee about drag'n'drop would be nicer
though. It gives the same result, but is more dynamic/flexible.
