Fine with me. I'd guess that it would be easy enough for me to adapt them to the domain-specific attribute stuff to use the same approach.
I'd suggest delaying removing the existing code until we have a replacement, of course.
Given their limitations, and given the impending move to gtkmm, I think it will be easier to construct a generic "domain specific" dialog from scratch.
For me it is easier to adapt the existing code -- partly because I'm not familiar with gtkmm (and not very familiar with gtk for that matter), and partly because I've already looked into it for the existing code.
However, the (small?) additional difficulty of using a new dialog from scratch may well be worthwhile if it overcomes the aforementioned limitations.
