Recalled something like that but the problem is attaching the signal to the property

Any idea how to do that in python ?

Edit: I was stupid (and tired) and parsed the C wrong at first...

Code:
self.mainwindow.connect('notify::is-topmost', self.got_focus, 'notify::is-topmost')
Works fine.

"Problem" is that I get this signal for every subwindow instantiated as well but that is a minor annoyance, thanks.

edit2: I realized that of course I get the signal every time I change away from the window, it's no longer topmost... duh! (yes I was tired last night)
