Bug description:
(Cleaning some old notes of mine)
This was while using GTG 2.4.0 from the daily ppa.
When GTG crashes, XML files may be left empty.
This should never happen. GTG should not open an existing file for writing,
ever. The proper way to proceed is to open another file with a temporary name
in the same directory, and only once properly written and closed, the original
file may be deleted and the temporary file renamed appropriately.
With a bit of sophistication, GTG should check for a temporary name whenever a
required file is missing, and do the rename on the fly. This accounts for a
crash happening between the delete and the rename, above.
