It's a glib thing. A quark identifies a string uniquely, after you register 
that quark name. 
I think it is used to avoid doing string comparison, for performance.

You shouldn't see it anywhere in the gtkmm API. I notice that it is used
in Glib::Object::get/set_data() but those are not very useful functions,
and I think I might deprecate them.
