I'm not sure if this would be allowable, but would you consider adding:

Glib::RefPtr<T_CppObject>::operator T_CppObject*() const

I've found I needed to get the raw pointer on occasion, and I wind up
using operator->() which is ugly.  I'd even settle for a get_ptr()
function if the cast operator is considered too dangerous.
