MyObject *
my_object_new(void)
{
    return MY_OBJECT(g_object_new(MY_TYPE_OBJECT, NULL));
}

MyObject *
my_object_new_from_file(const char *name)
{
    MyObject *object;

    object = MY_OBJECT(g_object_new(MY_TYPE_OBJECT, NULL));
    my_object_load_from_file(MY_OBJECT(object), name);
    return object;
}

.. if I understood it right.

GObject's GInstanceInitFunc (g_type_register_static_simple()) can't
be parametrized, afaik... But you can specify initial values to some
properties:

g_object_new(MY_TYPE_OBJECT, "prop1", 10, "prop2", "foo", NULL);

2all: I have a perl-script that generates GObject templates; tell if
you need it here (I have no idea how to attach it -- base64?)
