The issue isn't really the API but its implementation. I'm not
proposing to mandate the use of GSignals for clients to register
callbacks, or sub-classing a GObject in order to implement a client.
But that doesn't mean liblash can't use GSignals and client classes
internally. Of course, in addition, you could then expose GSignals and
GObjects for those that *do* want to use them. And "easily" create C++
classes, and python classes, etc, etc.
