Sure it can. The class_init function can be defined as 'class construct'
block.

The class can have 'class' variables, which are shared for all instances, but
separate for subclasses and 'class' methods, that take the *Class struct as
their invocant. GtkActionClass:toolbar_item_type is a case of 'class'
variable.
