Although I agree that fonts and colors can and should be set in .gtkrc, I
believe that there still should remain the ability (using Glade, of
course), to set properties such as color, font, etc., of widgets to some
specific value for an application, overriding the .gtkrc defaults.  If a
person uses Glade to develop a game, or whatever, there may be specific
reasons to want buttons to be of a particular color or font (especially for
a game, for example).  I personally wrote an app in the last few weeks that
uses GtkButtons to display field information - if you want to edit that
field, you click on the button (labelled with its value), and a dialog is
presented to edit the value.  some fields were read-only, and some were
read-write, but in each case, i wanted to bring up the dialog if requested.
So, I changed the "fly-over" color (not sure what it's really called) of
the buttons to Red to denote that these fields cannot be changed.

Besides...from what I've seen, this code is already partially in place and
only needs to be finished.

Font and colors should be set in gtkrc, not hard wired in the application.
