You've got a bit of an unusual set of requirements: GTK, UI-builder,
generating C code. Note that the reason glade-2 is unsupported is
that they have moved on to an xml description-based approach with
glade-3; so why are you set on having the gui-builder write the code?

FWIW, I really like building my gui's in C++, doing my own mapping of
widgets to objects. I found it easier than glade-1 or -2 back when I
tried them. There is certainly a danger of not keeping a good
separation between interface and application code, though, and I'm
tempted to give glade-3 a try on my next project...

Is this the right group for this question? If not: What would be the
right group?

It's probably as right a group as any, but I'm not sure what you're
looking for exists.
