Well, on msw at least, I can change the selected radiobutton under
program control with SetSelection(), even when the radiobutton and
its radiobox are disabled. (A user can't, but the program can.)

I wasn't sure whether that capability is specific to wxmsw. Because
you seem unsure too, I'll just put it in my unit tests. That way,
the assumption I'm making will always be validated, even if wx is
ported to some new platform that we know nothing about today.
