Thanks; this was exactly what I needed; I'm now using the following
idiom for top-level windows:

        self.connect ("destroy", self.destroy_hook)
        quit_add_destroy (1, self)

With this, the `destroy_hook()' method is called when I either delete
the window from the window manager, or call the `.destroy()' method
explicitly, or call gtk_main_quit().
