I can't say anything to that part since I don't know the internals.

The only information I can offer is that the XID of the FLTK window is
nothing but the X11 Window (id), i.e. the type 'Window', but you seem to
know that already.

Maybe someone here has experience with your specific question, but
generally I'd say this is the wrong group to ask, you should better ask
in a Gtk related user group/forum.
