Hi Chema,

This close to the freeze of GTK+, it's probably better to file this as a
bug in the bugtracker, especially if there's any chance that there will
be an API change component to this.  Additionally, there are plenty of
other bugs in the bugtracker against GTK+ if people are interested in
this kind of code...

Love,
