Yes it is good :)

You should try looking at other FOSS applications code :) For instance,
GEdit has the same buttons.
You have to set a GtkStyle for that button to remove the focus padding.
Specificly:
gtk_rc_parse_string ("""
style "notebook-close-button-style"
{
GtkWidget::focus-padding = 0
GtkWidget::focus-line-width = 0
xthickness = 0
ythickness = 0
}
widget "*.notebook-close-button" style
"notebook-close-button-style"
""");
And then name the button widgets "notebook-close-button" and voilà!
gtk_widget_set_name (widget, "notebook-close-button");
