-<para>
-A #GtkUIManager constructs a user interface (menus and toolbars) from
-one or more UI definitions, which reference actions from one or more
-action groups.
-</para>
-<refsect2 id="XML-UI"><title>UI Definitions</title>
-<para>
-The UI definitions are specified in an XML format which can be
-roughly described by the following DTD.
-</para>
-<para>
-Do not confuse the GtkUIManager UI Definitions described here with
-the similarly named <link linkend="BUILDER-UI">GtkBuilder UI
-Definitions</link>.
-</para>

-There are some additional restrictions beyond those specified in the
-DTD, e.g. every toolitem must have a toolbar in its anchestry and
-every menuitem must have a menubar or popup in its anchestry. Since
-a #GMarkup parser is used to parse the UI description, it must not only
-be valid XML, but valid #GMarkup.
-</para>
-<para>
-If a name is not specified, it defaults to the action. If an action is
-not specified either, the element name is used. The name and action
-attributes must not contain '/' characters after parsing (since that
-would mess up path lookup) and must be usable as XML attributes when
-enclosed in doublequotes, thus they must not '"' characters or references
-to the &amp;quot; entity.
-</para>

-<para>
-The constructed widget hierarchy is very similar to the element tree
-of the XML, with the exception that placeholders are merged into their
-parents. The correspondence of XML elements to widgets should be
-almost obvious:
-<variablelist>
-<varlistentry><term>menubar</term>
-<listitem><para>a #GtkMenuBar</para></listitem>
-</varlistentry>
-<varlistentry><term>toolbar</term>
-<listitem><para>a #GtkToolbar</para></listitem>
-</varlistentry>
-<varlistentry><term>popup</term>
-<listitem><para>a toplevel #GtkMenu</para></listitem>
-</varlistentry>
-<varlistentry><term>menu</term>
-<listitem><para>a #GtkMenu attached to a menuitem</para></listitem>
-</varlistentry>
-<varlistentry><term>menuitem</term>
-<listitem><para>a #GtkMenuItem subclass, the exact type depends on the
-action</para></listitem>
-</varlistentry>
-<varlistentry><term>toolitem</term>
-<listitem><para>a #GtkToolItem subclass, the exact type depends on the
-action. Note that toolitem elements may contain a menu element, but only
-if their associated action specifies a #GtkMenuToolButton as proxy.</para></listitem>
-</varlistentry>
-<varlistentry><term>separator</term>
-<listitem><para>a #GtkSeparatorMenuItem or
-#GtkSeparatorToolItem</para></listitem>
-</varlistentry>
-<varlistentry><term>accelerator</term>
-<listitem><para>a keyboard accelerator</para></listitem>
-</varlistentry>
-</variablelist>
-</para>
-<para>
-The "position" attribute determines where a constructed widget is positioned
-wrt. to its siblings in the partially constructed tree. If it is
-"top", the widget is prepended, otherwise it is appended.
-</para>
-</refsect2>
-<refsect2 id="UI-Merging">
-<title>UI Merging</title>
-<para>
-The most remarkable feature of #GtkUIManager is that it can overlay a set
-of menuitems and toolitems over another one, and demerge them later.
-</para>
-<para>
-Merging is done based on the names of the XML elements. Each element is
-identified by a path which consists of the names of its anchestors, separated
-by slashes. For example, the menuitem named "Left" in the example above
-has the path <literal>/ui/menubar/JustifyMenu/Left</literal> and the
-toolitem with the same name has path
-<literal>/ui/toolbar1/JustifyToolItems/Left</literal>.
-</para>
-</refsect2>
-<refsect2>
-<title>Accelerators</title>
-<para>
-Every action has an accelerator path. Accelerators are installed together with
-menuitem proxies, but they can also be explicitly added with &lt;accelerator&gt;
-elements in the UI definition. This makes it possible to have accelerators for
-actions even if they have no visible proxies.
-</para>
-</refsect2>
-<refsect2 id="Smart-Separators">
-<title>Smart Separators</title>
-<para>
-The separators created by #GtkUIManager are "smart", i.e. they do not show up
-in the UI unless they end up between two visible menu or tool items. Separators
-which are located at the very beginning or end of the menu or toolbar
-containing them, or multiple separators next to each other, are hidden. This
-is a useful feature, since the merging of UI elements from multiple sources
-can make it hard or impossible to determine in advance whether a separator
-will end up in such an unfortunate position.
-</para>
-
-<para>
-For separators in toolbars, you can set <literal>expand="true"</literal> to
-turn them from a small, visible separator to an expanding, invisible one.
-Toolitems following an expanding separator are effectively right-aligned.
-</para>
-</refsect2>
-<refsect2>
-<title>Empty Menus</title>
-<para>
-Submenus pose similar problems to separators inconnection with merging. It is
-impossible to know in advance whether they will end up empty after merging.
-#GtkUIManager offers two ways to treat empty submenus:
-<itemizedlist>
-<listitem><para>make them disappear by hiding the menu item they're attached to
-</para></listitem>
-<listitem><para>add an insensitive "Empty" item
-</para></listitem>
-</itemizedlist>
-The behaviour is chosen based on the "hide_if_empty" property of the action
-to which the submenu is associated.
-</para>
-</refsect2>
-
-<refsect2 id="GtkUIManager-BUILDER-UI">
-<title>GtkUIManager as GtkBuildable</title>
-<para>
-The GtkUIManager implementation of the GtkBuildable interface accepts
-GtkActionGroup objects as &lt;child&gt; elements in UI definitions.
-</para>
-<para>
-A GtkUIManager UI definition as described above can be embedded in
-an GtkUIManager &lt;object&gt; element in a GtkBuilder UI definition.
-</para>
-<para>
-The widgets that are constructed by a GtkUIManager can be embedded in
-other parts of the constructed user interface with the help of the
-"constructor" attribute. See the example below.
