Personally, while I understand the thinking behind it, I'm not too keen
on that idea... if I expand an expander, I want it to stay expanded
until I say otherwise :) You'd really want a proper accordion widget[1]
for this sort of behaviour, but obviously we don't have one in gtk+
right now :/

Cheeri,
Calum.
