[pygtk] Getting GnomeCanvasItem's parent

[=?iso-8859-1?Q?Gergely_G=E1ti?=]

Hi,
I'm currently learning GnomeCanvas and just for fun I tried to port
testgnome.c to Python. Is someone else working on this?

Anyway, my problem is that in C I could get the parent of a GnomeCanvasItem
using
GnomeCanvasItem* parent = item->parent;

However I couldn't figure out how to do this in Python except for calling

item.set_data('parent', parent)

This works, but I'm not sure it's the right thing to do. (Circular references?)
Same goes for item.canvas and the bounding box (see struct _GnomeCanvasItem
in gnome-canvas.h).

Thanks,
Gergely
