Imanol -

As far as I know, they serve the same purpose. the GROUP_LEADER
keyword to WIDGET_BASE() is more recent, and it's my impression
that it is "preferable" to use the keyword here rather than in
the XMANAGER call.

I have a modal popup information widget that just comes up and
says "Please wait...busy doing < >...", and then after some processing
the widget is killed by the calling module. In this case, since this
widget doesn't generate any events, you don't register it with
XMANAGER. But I *do* want it to have a GROUP_LEADER, so I declare
it in the call to WIDGET_BASE() for the popup widget.
