Well I was going with a definition of: a widget that holds other widgets. I 
wouldn't call list a container, because it holds is a piece of text plus an 
icon, not an arbitrary widget, but genlist holds an arbitrary widget, anything 
the user wants, that was my reasoning to classify it as a container.

I'm not sure what you mean when you say that list items are part of the widget 
itself. From an UI point of view the genlist is a scroller that organizes 
widgets vertically(or horizontally), it's not a thing itself.

I'd also like to point out that what drove me to make that fix was a comment by 
marcellus1 on the IRC channel, asking why genlist was on the widgets list 
instead of the containers list(in docs).

That said, I'm not nearly as experienced in the project as either of you, so 
if you don't agree with me, I'm ok with reverting the change.
