Theming Internals
Tons of details relating to how gtk+ interacts with various themes. See also GnomeArt/Tutorials/GtkThemes for information.
GtkButton
A GtkButton is drawing with gtk_paint_box and a detail of "button" for regular buttons, and "buttondefault" for buttons that the "has-default" property is true.
GtkTreeView
The column headers are actually buttons, so your theme's code for drawing themes that call gtk_paint_box with a detail of "button" will be used. If you would like to draw something different for the headers, you will check the parent of the widget passed into gtk_paint_box to see if it is a GtkTreeView or GtkCList and draw accordingly. If you would like to vary the rendering for the first, last and middle headers, you can use gtk_treeview_get_header_index to find more column information (Pass widget as the second parameter).
Detail Strings
A quick extraction of detail strings. Some strings are dynamically concatenated in the code, especially gtk_paint_flat_box() in gtktreeview.c, so possibly not all variations are actually possible in practise.
