[maemo-developers] Application gtkrc files

In older versions of GPE, the GPE Summary desktop widget used 
gtk_widget_set_name to set the main widget name to "osso-speeddial".  This 
allowed the widget to pick up the same theme styles as "osso-speeddial" 
(whatever that may be).

I assumed that was a mistake and changed the set_name to 
specify "gpe-summary", for tidiness.  Unfortunately, users are complaining 
that they don't like the style the widget now uses and want to go back to the 
old style (that used to be acquired from "osso-speeddial").

Is there some way I can ship a gtkrc file with the application so that it will 
provide the style for "gpe-summary"?  Then I can set it up to look like it 
used to.

If I do that, can it be overriden in a theme (if someone really wanted to)?

If not, I might just change it back to "osso-speeddial"!
