<ignorant> Some people have mentioned that the DOM way of passing events first down and then up in the hierarchy (or was it the other way around?) would be very useful to GTK+. Something tells me that this should be tied to your proposal, but I'm not sure how :) </ignorant> [I know I've had to do some hacks in the past to deal with keyboard accelerators that weren't being processed at the right spot in the hierarchy... no real idea if that could have been helped with the scheme above.] Federico _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
