  That is fine by me.  In fact, I'd say this is something that should not be 
ported back, because of the size of the changes.

  My personal opinion is that the 1.x branch of pretty much everything should be 
bugfix only.  OTOH, I've also broken that by porting back the metaserver2 logic.

  but I certainly don't think every fix/change needs to be ported back and 
forth.  Minor changes may not be a big deal, but certainly big changes should 
not be fixed.

  An interesting question, given these different glade files (including one that 
is gtk-1 like, from my understanding), is should the x11 client and gtk client 
directories be removed from the trunk client area, and the gtk2 client really be 
the only official C based trunk client?
