        Not really as Tim says.

        Just a:

void
gnome_canvas_init (void)
{
        gnome_canvas_get_type ();
}

        Would do - but as everyone knows registering types you don't need
is expensive, and init functions are evil :-) which is why the proposal is
not very pleasant in general.

        Regards,

                Michael.
