You already can, generally speaking. The only glitch is with the
Gtk_Container children list and the fact that it's a snapshot or what
the container holds, so modifying it won't have any effect on the
container itself.

Well, that doesn't prevent them from using iterators, does it ? It
might be less intuitive sometimes, though.
