I was hoping to be able to have the same class deriving from both
gr_sync_block and QWidget, but unfortunately that doesn't seem
possible, but at least with this I can have both independently.

The downside is that it's harder to make the 3 versions of the block
share some of the code. I have a glfw version that's standalone and
doesn't depend on any GR gui toolkit support and I wanted to make a Qt
and WX version that integrated nicely and share as much as possible of
the GR integration code, but you need to do stuff so differently for
the 3 toolkits that's it's pretty hard to come up with a good
solution.

Yup of course.

I'd like to get WX to work as well so I know exactly all that needs to
be updated for it to all work together.
