There is no concept of main window in GTK+.

The leader for a window in GDK can be set with:

void	      gdk_window_set_group	 (GdkWindow	  *window, 
					  GdkWindow	  *leader);

To do this for a GTK window, you would, after show()'ing the window
so that it is realized, do:

 gdk_window_set_group (window->window, leader_window->window);

(A GTK for this interface may possibly be added in the future.)
