I've tried overriding destroy functions in the abiwidget control and
connecting to the "destroy" and "delete_event" events. Nothing ever seems
to get called. Reading through the EOG code implies that merely overiding
the destroy functions should work. But it didn't for me.
I'll look into the nautilus-adapter code to see if there is some clue as
to what signal it gives the control when it disconnects.
Thanks for your help Jason.
