This might be your problem. GtkHandleBox detachment, dragging and 
reattachment is managed inside GtkHandleBox's default signal handlers 
for the "button_press_event", "button_release_event" and  
"motion_notify_event" signals. If your handle box connects to or 
overrides any of these GDK events your signal handlers must return FALSE 
to allow the handle box to execute its default code. The only time you 
would return TRUE from one of these events would be if you were 
implementing some sort of custom attachment/reattachment behaviour.
