A ListView Component for PyGTK

Description

This is a class that inherits from a TreeView and provides an easier API than the standard TreeView. I initially developed it for Decibel Audio Player.

This class also comes with interesting features that are not part of the standard TreeView component:

• Internal reordering with multiple selection
• Automatic and efficient sorting of columns based on multiple criteria
• The user can show/hide columns by right-clicking on columns headers
• Prevents moving a row into another row
• No need to create a ListStore, it is managed internally by the ListView
• It's possible to mark a row and to let the mark move with the row (when reordering, sorting...)
