It would be usefull. Do you know if the help strings would pop up?

I gathered that, but I was just thinking about possible ways to change a help
message when the list box selection changed. I guess this would have to be
done in c.

The gtk widget itself would need to be enhanced for that.

There could be -- implementing new options types is fairly
straightfoward. I can add one if that would be useful.

Not atm. The options weren't really designed to be used at that
kind of low level. They're really intended for a 2-phase commit
dialog where you set all the options you want and hit 'Apply'.
In those dialogs, nothing is supposed to change until you finish.
I gathered that, but I was just thinking about possible ways to change
a help message when the list box selection changed. I guess this
would have to be done in c.
