Ok... well thanks for bringing this to my attention...

Glade-3 doesnt save properties that are default... and the bug here was that
since some string properties are changed either by the load sequence or 
by the
entries in the editor themselves, the NULL string properies apear to 
have not
changed... but they have actually become '\0' charachters (thus the save).

Now NULL & '\0' is treated the same... after I make my next commit... 
re-saving the glade
file in glade-3 will fix the problem (it does here on my local copy... I 
just have
a few things to do before I can commit this change).

Cheers and thanks for reporting bugs :)
