No and yes.

I just tried it with some very similar code that I have, and discovered
that likewise calling Widget's grabDefault() doesn't do it. Damn.

I poked around in the GTK docs, and it turns out there is a method
gtk_dialog_set_default_response(). Which works. You have to call
setCanDefault() on your custom Button first, though.

I've added coverage for setDefaultReponse() to Dialog, and merged it to
'mainline'. It'll be in java-gnome 4.0.17
