I hope most would agree with me that this is a tough feature to implement.
Also, making any changes to the callbacks.c/callbacks.h through glade can be
dangerous if this feature is not well implemented. This would involve
scanning through these files for the previous callback func and subsequently
replace that with the new one. My instinct tells me that having this feature
might unstabalise Glade. Just consider an example. Suppose i create a
button_clicked callback function through glade. By default, it's parameters
would be (GtkButton *button, void *user_data). In case you change them
manually (to say, on_button1_clicked(GtkWidget *, gchar *);), what's Glade
supposed to do when you rename the button and rebuild the source??
