Work on the Gui: some of the framework for drag & drop. Also made Window an IWidget. Implemented getWidget(x,y) to find the widget under this location for IWidgets (but not Gui). Made Window an IWidget and made it work a little more similarly to widgets. Implemented callbacks on the Gui for mouse events (enabling drag & drop, etc.). committer: Diggory Hardy <diggory.hardy@gmail.com>

31 By default OpenGL uses the bottom left as the origin, with the first (bottom-left most) pixel at 0,0.

32 SDL's mouse events use the top left as the origin, with the first (top-left most) pixel at 1,1.

33 I decided, for the GUI, to use the top-left at the origin with the top-left most pixel at 0,0. For OpenGL, the projection can simply be modified to achieve this; for SDL's events 1 is subtracted from each coordinate when the event is recieved.
