Form widgets in Motif map to "vbox" (vertical alignment) and "hbox"
(horizontal alignment) in GTK.  The Tutorial has a pretty good description
of using these under the "packing widgets" section.  In general, you create
the h/vbox and pack children.  The gtk_box_pack_start() function is used to
determine how the children are aligned internally to the h/vbox.

I think the GtkTable widget may also allow some form of alignment/packing
options, but I've not used it yet.
