The real problem is: They are not developed in the same language, they 
need additional system and language support libraries! I dare to mention 
that even script languages might come into sight (python) which are hard 
to compile into a library.

[I would not dare to reimplement glademm in C. It would be a nightmare 
to extend or restructure.]

Shortly I'm perfectly happy with the current situation.
