I'm still reviewing each xml file, to see if we can just generalize what the 
xml changes and thus remove it (fixing glade) or if it's indeed a useful xml 
file.

The widgets that don't have a filename attribute, but have a xml file have not 
yet been reviewed.

I try to finish the review tomorrow.  If I don't give any signal, just commit 
it :)

Commit this one

I was also at first tempted to remove generic_name, but in fact, the whole 
point of the xml files is to remove the dependecy on the exact widgets that 
glade handles, so that people would be able to add new widgets at runtime.

So we'll not known in advance what are the "supported" prefixes, and there is 
no way to known how to derive a generic_name from a name.
