My GtkCList rows represent instances, but how can I keep track of them?
Often you have a CList where you represent instances, but since the CList itself is only an array of text cells, you might think that you need to do your own bookkeeping of them (having a mapping row -> instance, for example.) But GTK+ already does that for us: Each row in a CList can have a data object attached to it by using the set_row_data() method. This method takes an object reference and attaches it to a row.
