Please wrap the GtkObject::destroy signal: The signal is useful to figure out that objects like windows in WINDOW_POPUP mode are destroyed.
Those windows are ignored by the window manager and therefore don't receive the GtkWindow::delete-event. Of course I could connect to other auxiliary signals like "unrealize" or "unmap", but also can get this signal without actually destroying the window, so connecting to those signals would be hacks only working on occasion. I really want to know when the widget is destroyed. This signal is also convenient for terminating main loops as it has the same signature as gtk_main_quit()/Gtk::Main::quit(). Actually I wonder why that many tutorials suggest connecting to the delete-event signal for terminating the main loop: The delete-event and gtk_main_quit() have an incompatible signature and I've never read that the return value of void functions always is zero.
