It appers that GtkFixed is not really designed for stacking widgets as it does not have a concept of a z-axis. What gets drawn on top is purely a matter of what child comes last when drawing, and a similar story is with input.
GTK does not have stacking. Perhaps one of the newer canvas widgets will allow something a bit like this, but for now, it's not supported, AFAIK. You can sort-of fake stacking if you put each child widget of the fixed inside an eventbox. At least with the X and windows backends this will pretty much work (by accident, really). You do pop-to-front by reffing the child, removing it from the fixed, adding it again, and unreffing it.
