setting insertion point in GtkText

["Michael J. Hammel" <mjhammel graphics-muse org>]

If you click in a GtkText window, the cursor is drawn in the correct spot,
but the insertion point remains at the last spot text was inserted.  The
only way I can find to update the insertion point is to type something.  How
can I get the insertion point to match where the cursor has been placed so
I can use gtk_text_insert() without having to type anything?

Looking at gtktext.c I'd say that the code for handling button_press_events
should do some of the work that goes on with key_press_event, namely the
computation of where in the text you're at.  The only difference should
probably be that with a button press event, you don't add any text, just
update the point values.
