The problem with glade2/glade3 is that it is getting increasingly  
difficult to obtain a glade-2 program. For example, the recent Ubuntu  
versions (which I happen to use) don't offer any glade-2 package  
anymore, only glade-3.

Also, please keep a close look on what actually has changed here:  
Except from the removed DOCTYPE line at the top of the file, the rest  
of the changes are *solely* indentation changes. As Geert already  
pointed out: It is important to keep the correct "interface-requires"  
comment line in there, but apart from this, I can't see that any of  
our target platforms wouldn't be able to read this file.

A completely different issue is the question whether we allow the  
usage of new widgets, which would increase the required minimum gtk  
version. We decided not to do this ATM, but this discussion is  
orthogonal to whether the glade xml indentations should be kept at  
glade-2 or can be upgraded to glade-3 file by file.

Regards,

Christian
