It should complain wildly in stderr, but maybe you weren't looking there :)

On the theme node

Currently, no. There is going to be a new doc tool which will handle
language differences when generating docs, hopefully. It should for
the most part be a 1:1 mapping, except when it isn't (destroy notify,
gerror, out parameters). If work on the doc tool doesn't improve,
maybe we can lay down some rules of how to translate the C API into
the JS API. That would be a shitty last resort, though.
