pane pain

["Michael K. Johnson" <johnsonm redhat com>]

Does it bother anyone else that the pane API is so much different from
the rest of Gtk?  I see two problems with it:

First, why is it limited to two panes?  Why not n panes?

Second why a gtk_paned_add{1,} interface?  At the very least it
should be gtk_paned_add(GtkPaned *paned, GtkWidget *child, position);
if the panes were extended to more than two, then ...pack_{start,end}...
would make more sense.
