We have a large application written in raw Xlib (X11R2).  We would like
to use some X Toolkit widgets as sub-windows of the application (using
explicit dispatching for event handling).  The immediate problem is
that XtInitialize creates the shell widget window as a child of the root
window.  Is there any easy way to create the shell widget as a child of
another (given) window?  If not, are there any problems with using
XReparentWindow on the shell widget's window?  Thanks much for your help.
