Hm, yay for our documentation...

Yes this works, but, well, why? Just call your function directly? Or connect via
drawin.connect_signal("property::visible", function() print("foo") end) to
"whenever any wibox' visible property changes".
But, yeah, you can just add arbitrary signals and emit these signals with
arbitrary arguments. These arguments will be given to every function connected
to this signal.
