I meant to add:

It would be easier if GTK+ types used the same names as their C names.

I had to fix get_type_name() a bit in Glade for some of the new types:

  if (!strcmp (type_name, "GtkTypeTextIter"))
    {
      *is_pointer = TRUE;
      return "GtkTextIter";
    }

  if (!strcmp (type_name, "GtkTypeTreeIter"))
    {
      *is_pointer = TRUE;
      return "GtkTreeIter";
    }

  if (!strcmp (type_name, "GtkTypeTreePath"))
    {
      *is_pointer = TRUE;
      return "GtkTreePath";
    }


I thought I'd added it to gtk-doc but it looks like I haven't yet.
