In case anyone cares: I like these interfaces.  I liked them in Java
and I think the implementation show-cased by Tim is very reasonable.
I don't think they will make binding languages to Gtk+ more difficult.
Using them should be no different from using the current signal stuff
and implementing them should not be more difficult than implementing
classes right now.
