Thanks for the very prompt answer and the heads-up on the mailing
list!  And while I'm giving exposure to pygtk here, I'd like to say
that it's just about the most glorious thing I've ever seen.  I've
never done any GUI programming before but I was able to get a basic
interface of my choosing together within a couple of hours of
untarring pygtk, in spite of the sparse documentation.  I'm seriously
impressed.
