Interesting.  From a different background, I worry about _all_ input.  I 
don't know the API or internals well enough to say one way or the other, 
but there's no (mild) security concern here?  Like giving a potentially 
unsanitized string to GTK, or in the replacement routines of OString?

In any event, I've done as you suggested.  How does this round of the 
patch work?

Thanks,

Kevin
