Description John Stowers 2011-06-27 00:06:50 UTC 
This is a limitation in pygobject/gtk - oolbars with menus via gtkuimanager are impossible without a custom action subclass

I might be able to work around this using connect proxy, something like

        self.ui_manager = gtk.UIManager()
        self.ui_manager.insert_action_group(self.action_group, 1)
        self.ui_manager.add_ui_from_file(os.path.join(const.UI_DIR, 'pygoscelis.ui'))
        self.add_accel_group(self.ui_manager.get_accel_group())
        self.menubar = self.ui_manager.get_widget('/main-menu')
        self.toolbar = self.ui_manager.get_widget('/main-toolbar')
        self.toolbar.set_style(gtk.TOOLBAR_ICONS)
  
        self.back_toolitem = gtk.MenuToolButton(gtk.STOCK_GO_BACK)
        self.forward_toolitem = gtk.MenuToolButton(gtk.STOCK_GO_FORWARD)
  
        self.action_group.get_action("go-forward").connect_proxy(self.forward_toolitem)
        self.action_group.get_action("go-back").connect_proxy(self.back_toolitem)
        self.toolbar.insert(self.forward_toolitem, 0)
        self.toolbar.insert(self.back_toolitem, 0)

John, thanks for looking into this. Actually, there is an easier way to do it, as we can just overload create_tool_item.
