To avoid unpleasant false negatives, you may also need to tweak GTK to treat all checkboxes and radio buttons as if their "fill" property was set to false, regardless of what the app developer has set. Otherwise when people drag what *looks* like empty space to the right of a checkbox or radio button label, instead of moving the window it will unexpectedly check/uncheck the control. >... > I should make this a gconf option.

If it's just made standard behavior, then app developers can start using Alt-clicking and Alt-dragging for advanced functions. I know the Epiphany developers would appreciate this, and I expect the developers of Inkscape, Dia, and other graphic programs would too.
