/**
 * SizeGroup provides a mechanism for grouping a number of widgets together so
 * they all request the same amount of space. This is typically useful when you
 * want a column of widgets to have the same size, but you can't use a {@link
 * Table} widget.
 *
 * <p>In detail, the size requested for each widget in a SizeGroup is the
 * maximum of the sizes that would have been requested for each widget in the
 * size group if they were not in the size group. The mode of the size group
 * (see {@link #setMode(SiveGroupMode)} determines whether this applies to the
 * horizontal size, the vertical size, or both sizes.
 *
 * <p>Note that size groups only affect the amount of space requested, not the
 * size that the widgets finally receive. If you want the widgets in a SizeGroup
 * to actually be the same size, you need to pack them in such a way that they
 * get the size they request and not more. For example, if you are packing your
 * widgets into a table, you would not include the GTK_FILL flag.
 *
 * <p>Widgets can be part of multiple size groups; GTK+ will compute the
 * horizontal size of a widget from the horizontal requisition of all widgets
 * that can be reached from the widget by a chain of size groups of type
 * GTK_SIZE_GROUP_HORIZONTAL or GTK_SIZE_GROUP_BOTH, and the vertical size from
 * the vertical requisition of all widgets that can be reached from the widget
 * by a chain of size groups of type GTK_SIZE_GROUP_VERTICAL or
 * GTK_SIZE_GROUP_BOTH.
