Proposed Patch to close tabs on middle mouse button click

On my systems this patch works and adds the desired functionality. However the implementation is kind of ugly since the position of a gtk widget had to be determined and the only solution I found was ccopying a private method of GtkWidget. This is no good. I hope for feedback regarding this issue, plus other feedback since this is my first time programming GTK. Also please have a look at the commit message.

Sorry I am a bit tired, the method wasn't copied from GTKWidget but from GTKNotebook... I am sorry for the confusion!
