how thick was the inlay?  can you belt sand past it, and still have workable bow?  If there is enough left, you can heat-temper it a la Marc St Louis, and get a snappy bow with reduced mass.

The only drawback to hide glue is it ain't waterproof.

use a heavy rasp or a beltsander to go through that belly inlay if you can...see if you can't make a shooter out of that thing!
