We'll mainly need some widget to wrap a spinbutton in a menuitem. Then we can finish a transition to stock GTK menubars and get exactly that functionality.

How's that coming, by the way? It's becoming urgent -- since we can't use the stock toolbar widget yet and we keep adding widgets, we're beginning to have some grave problems with uncollapsable toolbar width.

Would someone be willing to give me a little more thorough description of what is involved in creating a spinbuttonmenuitem? Sounds like something I might like to try.

ToolItem.
Essentially, we need a subclass of GtkToolItem which can contain a spin button.

Aaron, Let me know how that looks to you. If you're interested, we can hammer it out together, as Mental is right that it is critical and really needs to get addressed now.
There's some other work shifting more to use Gtk::Action which can be started if we know the spin button won't be blocking things. Also, it's a good chance to get more hands-on with Gtk and GTKMM.
The base GTK+ GtkToolItem is referenced at http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/GtkToolItem.html
GTKMM's Gtk::ToolItem is referenced at http://www.gtkmm.org/docs/gtkmm-2.4/docs/reference/html/ classGtk_1_1ToolItem.html
I'm not sure if we can implement it well by only subclassing Gtk::ToolItem and staying in C++ and GTKMM, or if we should drop to do a bare GTK+ subclass and then wrap that in GTKMM C++ wrappers.
Then there is a general item that lots of people can help with. As we add a new base widget, it would be good to ensure it performs well with different themes. So others could contribute by just running things and listing out any problems they see.
