[Gtk-sharp-list] GtkForms

[Robert Brown]

Just my two cents, but a class that provides databinding functionality to
GTK# widgets sounds good.  Although the only way I could think to make it
work would be to brute force it; ie passing the widget, the property to
bind, the data-set and possibly a method that would tell the dataset that
the widget has updated the data.  Although not an elegant solution, it may
work.  Does anyone else have a better idea?

BTW I wouldn't mind helping out code-wise on a project that allowed
databinding to GTK# controls.
