Damn that's ugly :)

But committed to stable branch because not much can possibly be worse
than the dialog we have now.  Also with davidz's patch.  And just a
note, we shouldn't be including the "invisible_char" thing in glade
files since GTK does that automatically for us now.  Glade still sticks
it into glade files though, so we get to manually remove it for now.
