You're correct; sorry, I went off the rails briefly.

Yeah, I guess.  But it's still quite ugly to have the situation where the GType
for GladeStock can only be accessed after gtk_init() has been invoked.

There are other approaches; Glade could dump the stock ids from gtk+ at *build*
time; then it would need to be rebuilt after new stock items are added to gtk+,
but it'd be more reliable.

Why does glade have an enumeration mirroring the stock ids anyways as opposed
to just having callers use the strings?
