Description Ross Burton 2003-03-25 11:44:37 UTC 
I believe that the label field should be a public part of the API -- it is
currently marked as private by the gtk-doc markup.

I think this should be public so that I can access the label directly and
do useful things such as gtk_label_set_markup().

The alternative of course it to add gtk_message_dialog_get_label(), but
that becomes an API change instead of a comment movement :)
Comment 1 Matthias Clasen 2003-03-25 12:06:52 UTC 
Making the member public would be an api change as well, and we generally move away from 
public members and towards additional interfaces. In fact, there is already a bug 
about adding a markup-taking constructor to message dialogs.
