No it should not be based on the Gee.Iterator, that one is not threadsafe among
other things.

The problem here is that gobject-introspection has parameterized types for a
fixed number of hard coded types (e.g. GList). This should be somehow
extendable to handle other cases, gpointer based and GValue based.


Anyway, this shouldn't be a problem for you as GstIterator works with GValues,
and GValues contain the information about the type of the value. You can just
get that at runtime and do a dynamic cast to the corresponding type.
