One problem with this is that an API that depends on it (e.g. an API
with tons of little objects that each emit signals) will be very
difficult to use with any of the proxy-object-based bindings where you'd
need to create a proxy for each of the little objects.

If you assume that APIs are designed for the proxy-based bindings, I'm
not sure this is useful.
