Why did you have to export the pen_up field? It doesn't need to be read
from anywhere else, so it could go into the renderer implementation
(RendererGdk).
Also, I'm not sure if this is the right way to do this. I think it would
be better if the object itself could somehow see it it was selected. Then
all the drawing logic goes into the object, and no modifications to the
renderer is needed.
