-- Document the format
+- Document the format better
- Add attributes to connect signals to their default handlers
and wrappers to their vfuncs
- Add a way to specify default values
-- Add a way to specify annotations
- Add a way to mark init functions like gtk_init
+- For argument/return values etc, store only c:identifier in the
+ <class/> definition. Requires a link to the references type in the
+ Type node.
+- replace gidl/gdk-pixbuf.gidl with something generated from headers,
+ verify all information is available, possible to write

- no way to construct a boxed type
- no way to access struct fields (should have a way to go field -> GArgument)
- types namespaced GI, functions namespaced g_
