[c] Hacking on the new widget

As you may know, we now have the a new widget implementation in CVS HEAD
(merged in from the WidgetPlayground branch thanks to nsh).

You can see the state of the problems with the editor widget here:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/showdependencytree.cgi?id=143769

I did some hacking on the editor widget over the weekend; the most
broken thing was the word-wrapping and resizing.  After my hacking
efforts, this now works a lot better: text should flow properly to take
account of the current width.

Unfortunately I think at some point I broke span tags; they appear OK
when you add a new one, but don't seem to work when you open an existing
document that contains one (filed as bug #159773).

I hope to have a go at fixing these various issues at some point soon,
but we should put out a tarball as well.   What might be most useful for
me to do is to write up some notes on how the new widget works.  That
might make it easier for other people to hack on the code (filed as bug
#160002).  There's also some primitive steps towards having proper table
editing.

Any thoughts about priorities here (or volunteers to hack on things)?
Anyway, be warned that I want to put out a tarball in the next week or
so, so if you've got stuff you want to fix (or new translations you want
to get in), please post to this list so that I know what the status is.

Dave
