  It depends. The two statements are a bit optimistic :-)

  It means the infrastructure is there to implement interfaces and
override gtk+ virtual methods.  However, some interface and virtual
method "proxies" cannot be automatically generated (yet) and need manual
coding, thus not all proxies have been implemented, which means you have
to check, case by case, if what you want to do is possible.

  In your specific case, yes, you can implement GtkEditable interface.
To do so, you have to add gtk.Editable to base classes, and implement
the interface methods.  For each interface method <foo>, you have to
implement a corresponding method do_<foo> in your class.  Then call
gobject.type_register(MyClass).

  Regards.
