I'm 99.5% sure that it isn't, at least not in any clean or reliable  
manner.  Basically, you'd create a situation where you have two event  
loops competing for control of the application.  In the case you  
described, I'm pretty sure what's happening is that the GTK event  
loop isn't getting run again to fire the signals needed to actually  
destroy the dialog.  You're probably going to wind up with a lot of  
problems like this trying.
