Bug Description

Ubuntu 12.10, glade 3.14.0-0ubuntu1

I am unable to configure the content of a button because it is set to use the action's configuration. However, the 'Use action appearance' setting can not be turned off if no action is set. The only way to fix this is to set the action, turn off the setting, and then remove the action.

What should happen:

The content for a button should be configurable if no action is set, regardless of the 'Use action appearance' setting.

Just to add this also affects toggle, check and radio buttons. Basically all types of buttons.

Related to this, cannot change "Label" for popup menu (GtkMenu) "Normal item","Check item" or "Radio item". That input is grayed out. Also for "Image item", "Stock item" can't be edited.

Work around:
Set "Type" to "Image item".
Set "Related action" to a new action.
Set "Use action appearance" to "No".
Delete the create action (action1).
Change the "Type" to the desired type such as "Normal item"
Editing "Label" then works.

Also, when I set 'Use action appearance' to No and restart Glade, it gets changed back to Yes.
