Feel free to fix up Gnome Guru, I was hoping someone would enhance it a
bit.

I guess a nice way to do pages would be:

GtkWidget* (*GnomeGuruNextPageFunc) (gpointer data);

gnome_guru_set_next_page_func(GnomeGuru*, GnomeGuruNextPageFunc);

or something like that, the user function would return the proper page
when called. I'd like to have this in addition to the current simple API. 
(if the NextPageFunc is NULL, it just traverses the list of pages
instead.)  Then you can keep it simple if all you want is a series of
steps, but you can also get more complicated. 

Other ideas for how to implement this?
