I code in GTK+ as well.

If I was implementing window configuration retention or other GUI
settings for a GTK+ program, I would first try to see if a gtkrc file
would do it.  If not, then libxml would only catch my eye if the
interface calls I make are sufficiently easy to justify the dependency.

It may hurt gpsim's user base to place a dependency on libxml.

On http://quozl.us.netrek.org/gfocustimer/ my settings are recorded in
a plain text file, as a series of name value pairs.
