Sane Editables

[Christian Reis]

After being aggravated for ages about GtkEntry and co.'s behaviou, I
checked in today a function in Views.py that implements `sane'
editables:

    Modified Files:
            Views.py
    Log Message:
    Implement enable_sane_editables(), which makes GtkEntry and GtkText
    work in a less brain-dead fashion. In this mode, tabbing into a
    GtkEntry, GtkSpinButton or GtkCombo selects the text (and if you
    clobber it, Control-Z restores it); tabs are also *not* allowed in
    GtkText widgets.

    I chose not to implement selection for GtkText because I think it's
    quite unusual. Feel free to complain if you disagree.

If anybody has any comments about it, feel free to raise their voice. To
enable it (for *all* Views in your code), try:

    Views.enable_sane_editables()

before instantiating your first view (right after importing Kiwi.Views
works nicely).

Take care,
