i would use a GtkTable with 4 columns and 2 rows. widget A is attached
to ((0,0),(0,1), B is attached to ((0,2),(0,3)), and C to
((1,0),(0,3)). Set the expand/fill options appropriately, then later
attach D to ((0,1),(0,2)).

i haven't tried it out, but i'm pretty sure that will work.

alternatively, if D can be created "early", then just pack it into a
box, and hide/show it as needed.
