Hi,

I'm in the process of writting custom widget for packet bytes (hex/bits).
It works nice, but it lacks some features of old GtkTextView:

 - At least on Linux you could select **any** text using mouse and it
   got copied to clipboard.
 - No horizontal scrolling. Do we need it? For really small screens with big fonts?
 - No support for bitmask-highlighting in bits-view.
 - It doesn't flicker.

If these are no blockers I'll prepare patch for testing to make sure it
works properly on most common systems :)
