| It is not possible to get compatible stream representations via

This is what i called the "easy" part of the job.
But, obviously i suppose the compiler will do the job. If i must override
Stream attributes, i won't consider it so easy :-)
I can't believe it's impossible, after all, this is actually done by Glade,
isn't it?
