We would probably also need the _full() versions so that you can set
priorities.

I think it is a good idea, but the patch as attached doesn't really
work if you manually remove the source with g_source_remove. In that
case, the weak reference callback will try to remove a source that no
longer exists or worse, a totally unrelated source (if source id's are
reused, which I don't remember).
