Ah yes, 
    I didn't catch this during the implementation, when a library registers a
widget with libglade using glade_register_widget(), the build_children callback
is called with a GladeWidgetInfo struct, thus rendering GladeWidgetInfo & 
GladeProperty public data types.

Hmm, I did kind of enjoy refering to properties as GladeProperty, but I guess
well have to find a new name...

Cheers,
