It may not make sense for wxLog, but if GTK generates spurious messages 
with wx, putting some kind of GTK message manager in the wx library 
seems like a good idea.

In a C/C++ program, it may be easy to just put the code in the 
application.  With wxPython, it's more awkward.  If one takes my 
approach, using a separate library, it needs to be built, distributed, 
and installed along with the Python code.  It would be better to be in 
wx and wrapped by wxPython.
