Additional attributes when using he subclass attribute in XRC files.

[Renji]

Replying to my own message:

Going thru the sources, I realized that I can do this using a
wxXmlResourceHandler-derived class.

One additional question:
The object created by the resource handler does not get auto-deleted by
any container. Is this how it's supposed to be?
