As i recall, we realized that placing arbitrary perl modules directly into the Gtk2 namespace was a bad idea in the long run, opening us up to the possibility of name clashes and other problems as the upstream code grew. Moving from the original to the new name allowed fixing a couple of warts, and the new code continued to evolve. > Another question I have is, is it possible to use Gtk2::SimpleList to > create a treeview?
