I wrote a replacement for lookup_widget (). It's called
widget_find_by_name () and works completely independent from Glade or
libglade. It may be used to locate any existing child widget of any
container by its name. As it's unrelated to Glade, it doesn't scan
through Glade's XML files, though. It just works on widgets which have
already been created by any means, i.e. via libglade. It can be found at
