Description Joe Shaw 2003-02-07 19:03:52 UTC 
Properties (like "sensitive" on GtkWidget) should be attributes in pygtk,
so you can easily do "widget.sensitive".

the getattr() method for PyGObjects should probably call get_property() on
the object before giving up.
Comment 1 Johan (not receiving bugmail) Dahlin 2003-02-10 20:08:39 UTC 
What do you say about modifying __getitem__ instead?

So we have:

widget['sensitive'] = False
print button['label'] 

Acceptable?

This is a duplicate of another bug I filed.  If we do this, I would
prefer to do it with descriptors if possible.
