Just so everyone's aware -
In this instance, I had misread the header file at the first pass, and both the methods I was asking
to be implemented are actually deprecated in GTK+2.0 (oops).
The conclusion of the subsequent discussion between Andrei & self was that most of the major
changes in GTK2.0 are internal rather than external, and won't be evident to PHP-GTK users. It
seems sensible that the manual should highlight deprecated/broken functions and classes, giving
alternatives where they exist, & ensuring that the given alternatives are implemented in both
current PHP-GTK and in GTK2.0. There are a few places where the entire philosophy behind a class
has been altered radically, and in those cases we should make a point of saying that this is so
& that coding using these classes will need to be rewritten at some point, & provide a link
to the relevant GTK2.0 manual page for now alongside instructions for using the current
implementation.
Functions/methods exposed in PHP-GTK source but not yet implemented should be covered and marked as
*not implemented* where they are likely to be implemented in the future, ie are not marked as
deprecated in GTK+1.3.9. Anyone doing this in the manual should mention it to the dev list.
Hope that sounds like a fair assessment, Andrei ...

GtkButtonBox.
set_spacing() and get_spacing() are both marked as deprecated in GTK2, the plan being to get rid of
the inherited 'spacing' property completely and refer only to the child and layout
functions.
May therefore be a good idea if someone could please bring get_child_ipadding() and get_child_size()
to life?
