	Well - the problem is knowing quite what people want / expect from
this. Calling bonobo_control_frame_get_popup_component grabs a
UIComponent associated with the remote 'popup' UIContainer on the
Control. This is so the Control has control of it's own context menus -
and yet the frame can insert items too.

	Yes - certainly; that's a different UIContainer though. When you do
widget_new_control - that associates a parent container into which the
Control will merge the master frame menus. The other method is to get
the Control own UIContainer for it's local menus.

	I hope that makes sense; there are several reasons for it being done
that way - many of which I don't recollect precisely.

	Regards,

		Michael.
