 This is the standard solution, yes. If you don't want to create a class
just for this (although I don't see why: a control highlighting its
elements when mouse is over them seems to merit a separate class IMHO) you
can also Connect() the wxEVT_MOTION event to a method of another class
taking care to pass the correct pointer as eventSink parameter.
