Hi!

Does anyone out there know how to Reparent a widget?
This means I want to remove a widget from its parent widget (most likely
a composite widget) and then make it a child of another parent widget.

There seems to be no easy way of doing this short of making a copy of the
widget, then using XtDestroyWidget to remove it from its parent, then adding
the copy of the widget to the new parent. I find this method yuckky. Any help
on this greatly appreciated.
