Yes, tp-qt4 has most exactly that, although the factories are separate objects
rather than interfaces on a single object. Using multiple glib interfaces on a
single object allows you to binary compatibly add more factory-constructible
types though, which is cool (in C++ you can't add base classes without breaking
ABI).
