  OK; I've got this kind-of going (in ~/.gtkrc.mine) with the GTK example
'entry' app. :

binding "clipboard-binding"
{
   bind "F16"
   {
      "debug-msg" ("<Copy>")
      "copy-clipboard" ()
   }
   bind "<ctrl>g"
   {
      "debug-msg" ("<Ctrl-G>")
      "clicked" ()
   }
}

class "GtkEditable" binding : rc "clipboard-binding"
class "GtkEntry"    binding : rc "clipboard-binding"
class "GtkButton"   binding : rc "clipboard-binding"


  If I <tab> around the fields, <ctrl-g> reports debug & clicks on all of
the three buttons (two toggles & the exit).

  But I get nothing for the GtkEntry.


  Is there something funny about the bindings/editables such that
editables always grab all key events (missing out the bindings somehow)?

  I'd expect bindings to *always* be processed before being passed to the
widget, but I must be wrong.


  Is there an editable-specific way of doing this, then?


  I've tried following the code through, but it's a maze of signals &
event-queues - I got hopelessly lost!
