Oh, I should mention gtk_widget_activate(). This is the function
that's invoked in response to an accelerator; so it clicks buttons,
activates menu items, etc. Perhaps that's what you are after.

Actually, even better: gtk_window_activate_focus() exists, which
simply activates the currently focused widget. Space bar does this by
default, BTW.
