I think it's easy to avoid, if you can have the IDE into two
different states, the code editing state and the interface editing state
(like JBuilder, for example), then, when in code editing mode, you hide the
glade windows, and when you return, you show them again. Of course, into
interface editing mode, you hide all code editing windows opened, or almost
all. IMHO, the currently glade editing window, should fit with CORBA into
the IDE main window in any way, to give more integration feeling :)

But when you are drawing your interface, you don't need neither
editors, nor debuggers, and you can hide them.
