Indeed. With the seed sown by Olivier and your contributions in this
thread, I am now of the view that the D API as is is as it should be –
and that the C++ one should not be as it is. Or at least all that is
needed are a few hand-crafted extras to map the C API to something more
idiomatic in D.

I have reflected this in postings to the GtkD forum.
