glade_widget_superuser ()

gboolean            glade_widget_superuser              (void);

Checks if we are in superuser mode.

Superuser mode is when we are - Loading a project - Dupping a widget recursively - Rebuilding an instance for a construct-only property

In these cases, we must act like a load, this should be checked from the plugin when implementing containers, when undo/redo comes around, the plugin is responsable for maintaining the same container size when widgets are added/removed.
