Aha, and that requires that all functionality is implemented as standalone functions. This might be okay for clicking buttons, but for custom widgets (e.g. text editor), I'd still prefer subclassing.
Are you sure that you do? The equivalent of b1->clicked_signal = my_callback_1; b2->clicked_signal = my_callback_2; b3->clicked_signal = my_callback_3; would require three new 'button' subclasses. Even if the above requires three brand new functions to be written (which is rarely the case, I usually boost::bind existing functions), it's still less code.
