ahh, that functionality is already in place, do
sw = gtk_type_new (GTK_TYPE_SCROLLED_WINDOW);
/* <arg-name> doesn't neccessarily be a construct arg */
gtk_widget_set (sw,
                "<arg-name>", ARG,
                NULL);
gtk_object_default_construct (GTK_OBJECT (sw));

that's all that is done by gtk_widget_new().
as mentioned earlier, gtk_object_default_construct() will apply those
construct arguments with a default value, that haven't been set on
the object yet. ast the end of gtk_object_default_construct(), the
widget is marked as GTK_CONSTRUCTED (gtk_object_default_construct()
will for objects that are already GTK_CONSTRUCTED simply be a no-op).
