My two cents. While this is being called a regression in the title, returning a
copy of a boxed type with (transfer none) is a safe thing to do. Before that,
it was really easy to crash the interpretor. Though, pygobject could rather put
a "ref" to the original object to actually bind the lifetime (doing this at the
Python reference level rather then touching the object references). Effectively
creating a cirular reference though, which will hopefully be fixed by the GC.
