Hi, folks.

I'd like some help/direction on how to fix bug 498402 [1].
It's about strings like '<b>Enter a name for this connection</b>'.

These strings come from glade, and are marked for translation. I know i
should cut the html tags, but is there a way to do this without need of
coding? Can glade/intltools strip those marks away automagically?

There is an old debate I see you found here:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97061

My personal preference here would be to support the
attributes property in glade, as proposed by Matthias.

Then the preffered way of setting markup would simply
be through a separate property. (the bug also mentions
certain conflicts when setting "attributes" & "use_underline"
and other auxiliary properties, these conflicts IMO should
be dealt with in gtklabel.c).

Cheers,
