I dont think thats right, are there any apps that work that way ?

I was thinking somthing like this:

==========================================================
g_signal_connect (... "key-press-event", my_handler... );

/* ... */

my_handler () {
     /* call the centralized key handleing logic */
     glade_key_event_handle (... event args..., "key source");
}
==========================================================

where "key source" could be:

enum {
     KEYSRC_GWIDGET,
     KEYSRC_PLACEHOLDER,
     KEYSRC_PROJECT_WINDOW
     ... etc etc...
}

It would be the responsability of the calling code to setup its own
event signal handler, only it would call a centralized function to
take care of what gets done at that point.

Cheers,
