No, I was not reffering to a bug ;-) just saying that from memory I
thought there already was one, so it would be better to just attach
it there, we usually handle bugs in bugzilla - its easier for me :)

Its a tough question that I havent got around to thinking what our
policy should be concerning that - thats why I havent answered it
yet.

The problem is that "complete" is a property that you would generally
set programaticaly, depending on something in the assistant page itself,
to show that that page is "currently complete", certainly doesnt fit
into what glade does.

Glade trunk loads and saves files in libglade format with little or no
regressions
right now, it also supports conversions between the 2 formats and provides
error reports about which widgets/properties are supported in which
format/version.
(see either the project->properties dialog or the format switch when saving).

Because gtkbuilder is preffered, it is the naturally the default
format for new projects.

Cheers and sincerely thanks for your support,
