I have some more questions about this standard.
If the the users tries to define the same parameter twice, should he
get a warning, an error or none? If it's not an error, should the
function use the last or first value given? For example, what
behaviour should this give?
zenity_message ("Drugs are dangerous, you should use them under adult
supervision", "timeout", 5, "timeout", 10)
Also, should the parameters and values be case sensitive? At the
moment I wrote them to be insensitive (it's an anarchist API). The
following would work just as fine
zenity_message("Drugs are dangerous, you should use them under adult
supervision", "tImEoUt", 10)

I was not thinking about a new interface (I don't think I have the
knowledge to do something like that yet). I was thinking about calling
the zenity_list function inside the zenity_file_selection if the the
"repeated selection" was on. This would show 2 windows, two different
calls to zenity. Every time the user selected new files, the list
dialog would de redone with the new files. I only taught myself how to
work with an hammer so all my problems look like nails.
But I guess you are right. I'll get all the functions working with the
standard API first. After the new release I will think about something
for this.
