You can read the values, otherwise you would not be able to
use the dialog at all.

The dialog does not close itself on OK, you always
explicitly destroy it.

So you can read the values and *not* destroy the dialog if
you don't like them (and display another dialog, etc.),
right?  See also the recusrive dialogs in my last post
(http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-app-devel-list/2007-March/msg00154.html).
