Even cooler is passing the binding to the constructor. You can
create a button like this:
btn = dabo.ui.dButton(self, Caption="Wow", OnHit=self.onWowButton)
...and this will automatically bind the Hit event to the
self.onWowButton method.

The button is the only thing in that sizer. Then that button sizer
is added to the mainSz, but it isn't centered there.
You could simplify things even more. I've updated Nate's code so
that it works the way you expect. The code follows my sig.

This is incorrect. What you want to do is set the MenuBarClass in
initProperties(). This way, when it is time to create the menu bar,
it will use your custom class instead of the default. Alternatively,
if you set the MenuBarClass to None in initProperties(), no menu bar
is created.
