Ok! After trying a lot of things, I finally found it. I managed to make my
button appear in the notebook! It is really a NICE thing to see it work like
this:)

I'm just now wondering about what should really go into the config component.
Tell me if I'm being wrong about all this, but here is my point of view:

The config component should allow the user to configure the corresponding DBMS
(with things such as creating, saving, destroying of complete databases,
creating, destroying and changing users rights, etc). As some DBMS may have
other things to configure, I want to create several components (one for users,
one for databases, etc) which can be called as independent components (with for
example "gnome-db-users", "gnome-db-databases"), and then create the global
config component as a grouping of all these individual components (in a
notebook). The benefits are that a client (such as gASQL) can choose to get
only one component, and at the same time a client can get the full config
component?  What's your opinion on this?

Nice idea!
BTW, making CVS snapshots available daily IS a very good idea!
