I personally think that this method is the better method of the two.  It 
seems to fit better with the rest of
GTK+.  Nevertheless, couldn't you simplify your code quite a bit by just 
adding a GtkCheckButton that
contains a GtkLabel and GtkArrow into your container as an internal 
child?  Your widget will still be a
subclass of GtkBin, but you won't have to duplicate existing 
functionality (which can always lead to
inconsistencies).  Also, I don't really see a reason why the widget 
can't be NO_WINDOW.

Just some thoughts...
