I initially started without the _FULL version of the macro.. but then  
decided that adding it let me remove a bunch of code from the base  
components, and was more closely aligned with the GST_BOILERPLATE*()  
macros (which seemed like a good thing)..

The _FULL() version of the macro allows for implementation of  
interfaces, and other such flexibility, so I would have thought that  
changes in base components to support tunneling, or other such  
enhancements could be accommodated by the _FULL() version of the  
macros.. but maybe you have something in mind?
