FWIW, when I made the switch to glade-3 for system-config-printer I bit
the bullet and explicitly set the orientation property for every VBox I
had in the UI.  It isn't absolutely necessary at runtime, but it is
essential if you want glade-3 to show the interface as it will actually
appear.

That wasn't all that was necessary though:

 * all GtkSpinButtons needed explicit GtkAdjustments added; 

 * GtkComboBoxEntry widgets needed to have their default text columns
set;

 * and GtkComboBox widgets needed to have models explicitly set --
meaning that any translations previously in the glade files had to be
moved elsewhere.
