Both guile-gnome and my hack have two parts
- an introspection layer
- a gobject-to-guile binding

I had a chat with Wingo at the last FOSDEM, and he thinks the
gobject-to-guile binding could be reused, and that I could just swap
the gwrap GTK+2 introspection layer with a GObject introspection
layer.  I began analyzing that path a few months before life
intervened.

I incorporated these, and fixed the bug that caused your editor example
to fail.  Thanks!

Thanks,
