But this implies, that I have multiple buttons with the same name
(is this "legal"? Probably.), and it will be harder to identify a widget
if I want e.g. to assign a binding to a special widget.

Hmm. Not really the ideal solution. I think it is kind of strange, that
an application cannot determine the styles defined in a .gtkrc...

Thanks for the hint.
