Either that or use something like
	gtk_container_remove (toolbar, space_item)

However, this would require that the gtk_toolbar_insert_space
function would return a sort of "widget" instead of void.
I am not sure how the "space" is currently implemented.
But if a widget is used for that, anyway, it might be easier
to just remove the space "widgets".

Just my two cents,

Norbert.
