I'm assuming that a GObject init function will only be called if the
object is created with a normal C g_object_new call? In thoses cases you
would like to have the C++ wrapper (or else the widget isn't functioning
at all).

Also what does the wrap_register function do? I was assuming that after
the call to wrap_register there would be a full C GObject wrapper
available (which knows how to correctly instantiate a Gtkmm object) for
that specific GType?

p.s. I'm afraid my total lack of Gtk+ (and also Gtk+/Gtkmm interaction)
knowledge isn't helping here :( ...
