i'm beginning to think so, but the original thinking was that people who
want this will be totally newbies that won't want to even know there's
such a thing as model and view. in that respect it has succeeded. but if
others are going to use it then model maybe a better choice, perhaps
Gtk2::SimpleListModel or something would be the way to proceed and
Gtk2::SimpleList could use it. at some point i'd really like there to be
an attempt at Trees too.
