[Chameleon] Creating a "toolset" tool.

[Abe Gillespie]

I figured it out.  Since buttons are MEMBERS of widgets (instead of
being inherited) you have to explicitly issue a
$this->moButton->ParseURL().  I was not doing this.  My custom widget
now stays selected for the given toolset it's a part of.

Thanks.
