Okay, it looks like I found the import errors... but I can't get the
data out of any objects. Here's how I got them:

source_list = shell.get_property("sourcelist")
library, playlists = source_list.get_property("model")
sources = library.iterchildren()
import_errors = [x for x in sources if x[2] == "Import Errors"][0]

Or, if you prefer something more legible:

for child in library.iterchildren():
  x, pixbuf, name, source, pango_attrs, y, z, enum = child
  if name == "Import Errors":
    import_errors = source
    break

x, pixbuf, name, source, pango_attrs, y, z, enum = import_errors
query_model = source.get_property("query-model")

The number of elements in qm matches the number of import errors, so
that checks out. The following gives me a list of the entries
(RhythmDBEntry instances):

[entry for entry, count in query_model]

However, I have not been able to get actual data from these objects.
Each entry object has three methods (copy, get_entry_type,
get_playback_uri), but when I execute the following:

[entry.get_playback_uri() for entry, count in query_model]

I get a long list of "None"s.

What am I missing? I'd like to get the full path name for each file with
errors, as it is presenting in the rhythmbox UI. What do I need to do?

Thanks,
