well, if i understood well, i take a GtkSocket (this is what i am using...)
I add in it a gtkdrawable slightly modified to draw upon its parent window
I use the gtkdrawable to draw things with gtk_draw_*
mm... If you say this could work it probably mean that the drawing is
done on children first then on containers ... am i right ?
