I just realized that this isn't just convenience functionality; it's
actually necessary if someone wants to use labels with bold text, etc.

The current way of doing it is:
  attr = pango_attribute_weight_new ();
  attr->start_index = 10;
  attr->end_index = 20;
  list = pango_attr_list_new ();
  pango_attr_list_change (list, attr);
  ...

which is totally broken from an i18n standpoint, since the start/end
indexes are hardcoded. The position of the <b></b> tags needs to be 
in the string itself so it can be translated.
