I'm going to change the Glade 'Signals' property page so its more like
Delphi/VB - it will list available signals and have an entry next to them
where you type in the handler function name. It would also have a little
'...' button which opens the code editor.

So your idea would be more useful then. But would it have to rebuild the
tags table after adding a new handler function? That's a bit awkward.
