Vertically-expanded GtkEntry

["Murray Cumming" <murrayc murrayc com>]

smart_n, I've played with Glade and I can't find a way to do this either,
so I'm CCing gtk-list in case anyone there has ideas.

smart_n would like A GtkEntry to expand vertically in a container, such as
a GtkTable or a GtkHBox. For instance, in a GtkHBox:

---------------------
|          | Some   |
| GtkEntry | Big    |
|          | Widget |
---------------------

At the moment, the GtkEntry just centers itself vertically, regardless of
what packing options I use, without changing its size. I guess that
smart_n would like either
- the GtkEntry's box to fill the whole of the available space with the
text aligned inside the box.
- the GtkEntry's box to fill the whole of the available space with the
text stretched vertically to fill the box.

(I don't personally think that would be very useful or attractive, but I
guess he has his reasons.)
