Well this one is a little fringe and I want to postpone it.

Basicly this feature demands that the plugin backend be allowed
to add widget specific options to the palette, so yes please bugzilla it.

Please file a bug.

This one might be a little complex... heres a little outline:
   a pasted widget in glade3 is assigned the packing properties from the
placeholder that was replaced by the pasted widget... if any 
placeholders apply. 

If an object is pasted as a child of another object, via the widget tree 
for example;
the parent object will assign it the default packing props (if 
appropriate, a
placeholder will be  searched in the parenting container to perform the 
"paste",
for the sake of getting good packing properties).

Its a good feature to have, I dont think we should consider it a blocker 
though.

Please file a bug for this one too.

Cheers,
