It was the desire to use the mixer interface in the .NET bindings that drove me
to add these accessors. 

What did you mean regarding calling a method get_property()? Surely, it's
effectively just a private method existing in the gst_mixer namespace and,
hence, doesn't interfere? Or am I missing something (disclaimer: the last time I
did any real glib programming in C was pre-2.0).

Regarding using named accessor methods such as set_label and get_label, I feel
that this style of accessor is somewhat evil in that it undermines glib's
already limited introspection capabilities. One of the few useful things you can
easily do with with glib in the way of introspection is ask an object what
properties it has. This breaks that.
