No, glade doesn't has a MI.
Once we have glade installable as a library, you should be able to link
to it dynamically and just use its public API (yet to be defined,
unfortunatelly).
I'm not very excited about supporting a MI on glade, specially if we get
the glade-as-a-library approach to work.
Do you see any problem with this approach? That's what we want to use
to integrate with anjuta, and I hope that it will work out to be enough
for emacs.
Cheers,
