I think he is talking about namespaces in C showing up as the widget
name in Glade.  So the HBox is called GtkHBox but in Python which has
propper namespacing, the widget is simply called an HBox which is
contained within the Gtk package.

I would be opposed to an option to switch this on and off, as it would
add undue complexity, however I belive that GtkHBox is technicly wrong
and Glade should just adopt HBox as the name of the widget with Gtk
being the name of the package. Just a thought.
