<!-- ##### SECTION Title ##### -->
GimpChainButton
<!-- ##### SECTION Short_Description ##### -->
Widget to visually connect two entry widgets.
<!-- ##### SECTION Long_Description ##### -->
<para>
This widget provides a button showing either a linked or a broken
chain that can be used to link two entries, spinbuttons, colors
or other GUI elements and show that they may be locked. Use it for
example to connect X and Y ratios to provide the possibility of a
constrained aspect ratio.
</para>
<para>
The #GimpChainButton only gives visual feedback, it does not really
connect widgets. You have to take care of locking the values yourself
by checking the state of the #GimpChainButton whenever a value changes
in one of the connected widgets and adjusting the other value if
necessary.
</para>
