I'll add it back in.

Actually I think this brings up two separate issues for 0.100
that I'd like to get your (and all of pan-users, of course)
feedback on:

1. Right now the toolbars for the group and header panes are
split by the separator.  One bad consequence is that parts of
the group pane's toolbar disappear unless you widen the toolbar.
Another one is that in tabbed mode you've got access to at most
one toolbar at a time.  So I'm planning on using a more traditional
toolbar in 0.100, one which spans the whole main window just under
the menu.  This solves both of these problems and has no downside
that I can think of.

2. Everyone has different ideas of what buttons should be in
the toolbar.  I think I am going to put in a toolbar editor so
that pan-users doesn't have to have these arguments anymore. :)

Does adding "gtk_widget_queue_draw (self->_tree_view);" right
before returning in groups.cc::dirty_groups_idle() fix it
on your setup?
