Well, it's just like other projects - if glib started removing functions
people would complain.  Also, I'm pretty sure I explained why the
renaming and unifying needed to be done before 0.10 - precisely because
after 0.10's release, you can't make changes like that.

Could you make sure that whatever element factories got removed are put
back ?

We can't do releases of good until this is done.

Thanks,
Thomas
