This may not be true (I am still learning GTK+) but if you derive
DTable from GtkTable, can't you just use all of GtkTable's functions
with a cast?  So if someone wants to attach a child to a DTable they
just call:

	gtk_table_attach(GTK_TABLE(dtable),child,....);

Or do I misunderstand the problem?
