/// Connect events to sending a message.
///
/// Rule #1:
/// Send `$msg` to `$other_component` when the GTK+ `$event` is emitted on `$widget`.
///
/// Rule #2:
/// Optionally send `$msg.0` when the GTK+ `$event` is emitted on `$widget`.
/// Return `$msg.1` in the GTK+ callback.
/// This variant gives more control to the caller since it expects a `$msg` returning `(Option<MSG>,
/// ReturnValue)` where the `ReturnValue` is the value to return in the GTK+ callback.
/// Option<MSG> can be None if no message needs to be emitted.
///
/// Rule #3:
/// Send `$msg` when the GTK+ `$event` is emitted on `$widget`.
///
/// Rule #4:
/// Send `$msg` to `$widget` when the `$message` is received on `$stream`.
