Are there situations where something internal to GTK will change this?
To be more specific, if I'm interested in page 2 (and have that page
number in a variable somewhere) and *I* don't make any changes to the
page order, delete or add any pages, is it safe to assume it will
*always* be page 2?

I'm don't recall saying it's hard, but the docs don't answer my specific
questions.  As for this being "the only way that makes any sense", we'll
see how hard I get shafted by it.

Does GTK perhaps have another way to represent what most people call
"tabs" in an application?
