Good idea ! After thourough analysis of the Glade behaviour, it might be
what Glade does.

But, this is half of the answer. When Glade is open with the miscelaneous
windows (palette, property editor, ...), there is still one element
iconified in the taskbar. Are these windows child of the main window ?
Is it a group ?

My attempts to use grouped windows have been unsuccessful: 'not
implemented'  in the DOS console. Not tested under Linux, yet.

Anyways, Glade source code seems to be the solution, again.

Thanks, Romain.
