Exactly. Right now I would prefer to have a conversion of all .glade files to glade3 rather soon, because otherwise all patches for glade files will be an unreadable change of the whole file instead of a limited amount of changed lines with the actual code change. However, apparently the conversion might introduce bugs just like the one John fortunately fixed. This widget renaming was introduced by a commit of me (sorry for that) of a bugzilla patch, but neither the contributor nor myself would have spotted problems like these on our own. I'm surprised there isn't any "more secure" upgrade path of the glade files available... If anyone knows how to have those files converted *without* any widget renamings, I would welcome to have everything converted ASAP.
