Just playing with this now finally, if I understand correctly the
procedure to register with the factory looks like this:

1. make a MapSourceDesc
2. pass that to factory.register()
3. then factory.create_cached_source() will create it by id on demand?

Well champlain_map_source_desc_new_full doesn't seem to be
introspected properly because I can't call it, and if I try to just
instantiate the class directly (ie, desc = Champlain.MapSourceDesc(id,
name, etc...)) it says __init__ takes 0 arguments, 9 given.

Can you confirm? Or am I just doing something wrong?
