For what it's worth, there is another editor called Scintilla for which
I've written a python binding:

http://www.archaeopteryx.com/opensource/pyscintilla.html

It's really designed as a source code editor and has features like syntax
hilighting, etc, but it works fine without enabling those and provides
fairly fine-grained control of behaviours.

Very likely heavier in weight that the ideal text widget but it's still 
pretty lightweight on the scale of things.

Only tried on Linux and although Scintilla works on Windows natively I'm
not sure if its gtk personality has been ported/tested there (but this is
not a huge leap).
