Hmm, I'm looking at the implementation of GestureAction, and
particularly at clutter_gesture_action_set_actor(), and it appears, at
least on surface, that filtering could be done via a combination of
g_signal_override_class_handler() and
g_signal_chain_from_overridden_handler(), as applied to the
"captured-event" signal - emitted on the actor object.

Am I entirely wrong, or, perhaps, there is a better way?

P.S. Shouldn't there be an easier way to figure out such things?
I know, I know, documentation on fast-moving code-bases is a tough job..
