Thanks! Likely that I break it rather soon with the gtk+3 port though
but Massimo talked to the scintilla maintainer and he promised a gtk+3
version.

I do that with some values for the sourceview plugin, too  and it seems
to work. So, I think this is the right the way you did it.

The GSettings object is just a thin wrapper without any real
information. When you create three GSettings objects with the same
schema they should all access the same backend.
