I'm enjoying playing with vtcl and look forward to each new beta.

My first project using vtcl is almost complete and so I'd like to mention
a few features that would have been useful if present. As always, please
excuse me if the feature exists already but I've missed it. 

Here goes:

A way to change the creation order of placed widgets, or another method of
explicitly determining the TAB focus traverse order on a form. Perhaps by
using the widget tree window to rearrange widgets.

A method of changing widgets from placed to packed and vice-versa. I
currently do this by cutting and pasting the widget back again with the
appropriate geometry manager set. However, cutting and repasting changes
the widget pathname with dire consequences, particularly if it's a frame
containing many widgets.

I use the widget info window all the time to copy and paste the pathnames
of widgets into code. Vtcl doesn't remember it's window location next time
vt is started.

Cheers.
