1158,Widgets should implement Eq and Ord.,guest,axel,"  When using GTK+ from a typical imperative language such as C++, it's
occasionally useful to use the object identity of a widget: for
instance, you might want to create a set of ""main"" windows and
terminate the program only when all of them close.  Since widgets are
represented by pointers, this is straightforward, and they can be
stored in any standard container class (such as std::set).

  Unfortunately, the Haskell binding doesn't expose this information.
It would be nice if GTK+ objects had instances of Ord and Eq based on
pointer identity.  Then they could, e.g., be stored in Data.Set.Set
objects.

  (I know this can be worked around; it's just something that would
   save a little trouble)
