Bug#648009: libglib2.0-bin: no way to set a schemaless key using gsettings

[Tollef Fog Heen]

Package: libglib2.0-bin
Version: 2.28.8-1
Severity: normal

It seems there is no way to set a schemaless key (such as
org.gnome.gnome-panel.layout.objects.menu-bar.pack-type) using
gsettings.  All of:

: tfheen at qurzaw ~ > gsettings set :org.gnome.gnome-panel.layout.objects.menu-bar pack-type end
No such schema ''
: tfheen at qurzaw ~ > gsettings set org.gnome.gnome-panel.layout.objects.menu-bar pack-type end
No such schema 'org.gnome.gnome-panel.layout.objects.menu-bar'
: tfheen at qurzaw ~ > gsettings set org.gnome.gnome-panel.layout:objects.menu-bar pack-type end
Schema 'org.gnome.gnome-panel.layout' is not relocatable (path must not be specified)
: tfheen at qurzaw ~ > 

fails in various ways.
