This suggestion looked promising, but it appears that the alignment widget
takes only one child.  If it could take more than one and apportion space
among them, we'd have a winner.  As it is, the suggestion from John Dennis
seems to be the only possibility, but I don't see how to use it from Glade
(which is not an essential requirement).  This gap in GTK is surprising to
me and makes for an inauspicious start to my project.

Is there a repository for contributions that might be generally useful?  If
I (or someone) were to convert the suggestion from John Dennis into a
general-purpose widget, would there be a place to send it so that it would
be available to other programmers?
