 Hi, 

 JFYI, I posted an interface and implementation proposal for exactly this
(ability to configure UI of gnome apps configurable via gnome control center) 
on gnome-devel-list gnome org in the message with subject
"idea: special menuitem in MenuBar of each gnome application" this week. In 
archives:
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-devel-list/2001-February/msg00177.html
If it was implemented, in particular it would be possible to set whether to 
show icon text on per-app basis (without any changes required from app 
programmer, even recompilation won't be needed - i.e. it will be possible
to use it with existing apps). 
 
 Implementation doesn't require a lot of coding..

 I can implement the idea proposed if the implementation was sponsored.

 Sorry for offtopic (but you started it).
