Try the justify tag.
It uses the alignment at the moment, but I'm not sure if I have the fill 
hack in there make it actually have an effect in GTK.  You may need to 
do a xfill="true" in the cell it resides in.

I always just align to the left to match gnome specifications.

Not at the moment, I'm not sure how to do this in GTK. Is there a GTK 
function that sets the default hight/width of a window/widget etc?

Normally they always strink to the smallest possible size.

I just changed for updates. does it need it for inserts also?

You need to checkout new version of bonddb from subversion for the fix.
