This bug has been fixed upstream, and is no longer present in version
3.20.2 (in unstable). Here is the relevant commit:

 https://git.gnome.org/browse/glade/commit/?id=ac55fa78566145ac44d48ba88ec1351db5b4a99d

I confirm that this patch, backported on 3.20.0, fixes the issue. I am
going to prepare a stable upload to fix it in stretch.

Best,
