OK. That argument has been won. Björn says he'll provide the GType
when he has time (didn't say when that would be!).

I think so. I've committed what I have done to date:

http://trac.bjourne.webfactional.com/browser/plgtkimageview/

As I said, the basic widget and the main methods work. The test suite
(such as it is) and the enum don't.

I'd be grateful if someone would tell me what I've missed with the
enum and whether I have dropped any major clangers before I carry on.

Thanks
