I am guessing here, but thanks to Robin, (I would never have figured it out
by myself), I use the following code to get a reference to the underlying
checkbox in a GridCellBoolEditor -

    def onEditorCreated(self,evt):
        self.checkbox = evt.GetControl()

or if you prefer (which I do) -

    def onEditorCreated(self,evt):
        self.checkbox = evt.Control

A few releases ago Robin made most object attributes directly accessible,
instead of having to use the Get/Set methods, and I always make use of this
when I can.
