In Motif, can a parent widget get the events like button presses, that
happen in its children?  The answer seems to be No, unlike X where
events automatically propagate up to parent windows.  

I have a little Form with a couple of Labels that I would like to be
able to drag around a DrawingArea, but it seems I have to select
events on each widget separately.
