I'll have to take a look at recent Gtk Builder stuff, but when we had done overviews in the past it was the wrong approach. That is, it was far more like XUL and a focus on pixel-tweaking instead of a good HTML/CSS split with HTML focusing on the structure. We probably want to keep to more of a logical structure in the XML and not a physical one. (BTW, accessibility test cases help highlight issues in this arena)
The advantage these days is that with a proper gtk theme css, more of the pixel tweaking would be css based anyway (it's not quite css, but it's 80% the way there).
Accessibility and translations are pretty high on the testing list though.
