I was intending to use this code for the domain-specific attributes that Endre Nagy was wanting. Even in its current form with the limitations that Bulia mentions earlier, these dialog boxes are better than the XML editor for the task.
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.
Also, there's currently no other way for editing the properties of <a> objects to my knowledge other than the XML editor.
I don't think <a> should be presented as a separate object of its own. Rather, it is logical to treat it as a property of the object enclosed into <a>. Consequently, I propose to add a new "Link" tab to the Object properties dialog which would allow creating and updating links for an object.
The image URL may be another example.
This may also be a separate field or tab in Object properties.
