These correspond to the get_property() and set_property() methods in
pygtk2.  It is using the obscure mapping behaviour because that is what
was used in Tkinter for properties.  Unfortunately, people don't often
find this :(

There should probably be a widget.parent attribute in the stable version
of pygtk (there is one for pygtk2).
