Description Tristan Van Berkom 2006-06-25 18:39:11 UTC 
This feature has two (three ?) parts:

    o Widget groups should be ordered in the catalog, gtk+ should
      always be on top, then gnome, then any user installed catalogs
      (user installed catalogs can use the same mechanism to order themselves
      when there are multiple installed).

    o Properties should be ordered by hand in some cases in the editor
      tables, so that for example, the "tooltip" property lands near the top

    o Introduce property groups; it should be easy to group logical
      properties together in the editor, with a group name, so that
      the group name comes up in the editor as a header for that
      group... an example for the use of this feature would be to
      group together the image/stock stuff in GtkButton/GtkImage

I think that we can use a "float" value for this... widget catalogs;
properties and widget groups can all use a value.. so that the greatest
value "floats" to the top.

If talking about grouping properties I suggest to merge Common and Packing into General page at the same time. Accessibility can be merged too.

Signals and Style will probably have different interaction scheme and they are less related to other settings so it is good to leave them on their own pages.

I think users should be able to move groups in the palette. Additional ability to create custom group with favourite widgets would be awesome.
