I seem to remember seeing code for a GtkAspect widget (I may be
mis-remembering the name slightly) written by one of the core Gtk
hackers which did exactly what you're asking for.  I don't remember
where I saw it though.  Perhaps someone else will have a reference.

You could also just catch the configure event and call _set_usize() on
each of the widgets that you've packed into the top-level container.
