This reveals my already apparent utter cluelessness in GTK UI
programming, but why does "making sure text is pasted in the right
field" also mean that "ctrl-tab can't exit the toolbar"?

This is obviously an ancillary question, but I'm very curious.

Does every GTK program that makes use of a text-entry in a side-pane
face this dilemma?  Like MonoDevelop or Brasero?
