I am trying to use TextView to do multi-line input. Is there a better
widget for this ?

The widget work for text input. I would like to be able to set the
number of characters allow in the text view. I see no easy way to
do this.

I would like the focus to act like a entry widget. That is show a
boarder when widget is not in focus. When the widget is focused I would
like the border to show it has focus like must other widgets.

Also the insert-at-cursor does not get called when I type into the
widget. Is there any signal that I can use to limit the number of
character in the widget. (I can find a property to control max number of
character like the entry widget)
