libglade 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.6 (though unfortunately 2.5.x is the latest
version, for no good reason), (and maybe 2.8 today) are
API/ABI-compatible with each other.

It's most definitely as much a candidate for LSB inclusion as GTK+.
However, the GTK+ team have plans to put equivalent API in GTK+ itself
someday. You might want to ask on gtk-devel-list, to discover whether
they think it's a good idea to wait for that.
