Anything that GtkBuilder encounters that is unrecognized (unrecognized
xml tags, properties and even unknown/inexistant GObject properties) cause
GtkBuilder to either abort or fail to parse.

No Glade earlier than 3.10 allows you to edit a GtkGrid, however
the Grid implementation is based on the old GtkTable implementation.

To remove the erronously serialized n-rows/n-columns properties from
GtkGrid in Glade we first need to add some code to the GtkGrid deserialization
routine to "guess" the span in row/columns based on the span of all children
and number/position of added placeholders.
