Subject: Wrapping for GtkInvisible?

Actually, this may or may not be what I need... I am trying to use the 
"notebook" container, but all I really want is its tabs (with their 
behavior).  In Windows-land, this is relatively easy, as the tabs from 
a "property sheet" are available as a separate control.

For that matter, I wouldn't mind using the notebook, but it is not 
very happy having the same widget added as a page more than once.

I already have a separate mechanism for changing what is shown in my 
Scintilla editing widget - a standard model is to use one Scintilla 
component with multiple windows (or tabs or pages etc), and use its 
internal methods for quickly replacing the displayed contents.

So I thought to try to use the notebook (with "expand" set to false) 
and "invisible" widgets... is this reasonable (assuming I could get 
the GtkInvisible widget wrapped)?

Or would something like trying to get the notebook without visible 
pages or using some sort of "proxy" widgets forwarding to a single 
Scintilla editing widget be a better idea?
