If the actual check is done in SPText (I forget if it is), then it needs to have some way of signaling that failure to its caller (an SPTextContext method, in this case).

OK, here's another one for you: knot.c, sp_knot_handler(), available are SPCanvasItem, GdkEvent, SPKnot. I want to explain in the statusbar when Esc cancels node drag. How do I get an SPView?

(Sorry to keep bothering you, but I'm not too familiar with the hierarchy of objects.)
