For current situation of Gtk+, haven't explicit mechanism for reparent
GtkSocket or unplug GtkPlug. 

In my case, I want re-use GtkPlug when do split-window action, because
I don't want lost GtkPlug state when i do split action.

I think a better solution to around above problems:

The point of split action is "keep widget status", and not keep GtkPlug
status, because GtkPlug just container that contain real widget.
Why not reparent child widget from *old* GtkPlug to *new* GtkPlug?

So for my case, perfect solution is create new pair GtkSocket/GtkPlug
when i need split action, and move child widget to new GtkPlug.

Please let me know if you have better solution or suggestion!

Cheers,
