glade generates a file named support.c and support.h
see if there is any function that helps. (i dont know its content, but lookup_widget is defined there).
but i dont think so.
anyway, widget_lookup is something implemented by glade, not gtk. and this time you would only be updating info for two widgets.
If its a problem, it might be a good idea to ask and/or help glade developers make a wrapper (is this word used rright?) for reparenting widgets that does that too. (maybe its already there, but i dont know).
Check on glade site.
