I've just written a similar widget. You should subclass GtkMenuItem, override toggle_size_request, return zero to the *requistion parameter.
implement the creation methed new_with_label(), put a GtkLabel as the child of the bin in the creation method. You may also need to override size_allocate and size_request method. Good Luck!
