Doesn't that page just describe the basic event mechanism as well as
high-level signals or callbacks? That's not quite the same thing as
using Xt translations. The translation manager is essentially a layer
above the event handling, but below widget callbacks/signals. It saves
you from from writing code for each event when you want to do a certain
action after a *sequence* of events. You can specify a handler or
callback for, say, a keypress followed by a mouse button-click followed
by motion followed by mouse release followed by key release via a single
"translation" event. It may be seen as a way to define your own
highlevel callbacks/signals.

Does Gtkmm/Gtk/GDK have an equivalent to XtAppAddActions()/the Xt
translations manager?
What the translation manager does is, and I quote,
The Xt translation manager calls an action routine when an event
sequence matches an event specification in a widget translation
table. In a translation table, actions are associated with event
specifications. More than one event sequence can invoke the same
action routine.
