you're not thinking clearly. GTK is a multiplatform GUI toolkit. its
backend is not just X Window, but includes the DirectFB (framebuffer)
system on Linux, the GDI API (and others on win32) and recently
Quartz/Aqua on OS X.

sending GTK events doesn't mean sending events that are translated all
the way down to the backend's notion of an "event". if you send a GTK
"Button Press" event to a widget, GTK will do that entirely within its
own event system, without any reference to the backend you are using.

back to basics: why have you reparented the window inside a non-GTK
XWindow?
