something like:

   Gst::container_managed (new Gst::Pad);

might keep everyone happy. personally, i'd prefer an overloaded
operator new for Glib::Object:

	 enum ManagementStyle {
	      ExplicitlyManaged,
	      ContainerManaged
	      ...
         }	      

	 operator new (size_t, ManagementStyle style = ExplicitlyManaged);

allowing:

	new (Glib::ContainerManaged) Gst::Pad;
