Should all widgets created be manually destroyed?
The gtk_widget_destroy() and friends references do
not go into much detail on it.

When you destroy a widget, all its descendants (i.e. everything
packed into it) is destroyed too, unless you keep an extra
reference (with g_object_ref()).  So, if you need to destroy
anything at all, this will be top-level windows in most cases.

To be precise, if you keep an extra ref, the widget will still
be destroyed, it just won't be freed until you release the
extra reference.
