Sounds reasonable. I started playing around with this, but I'm getting some errors because GOwnPtr has outPtr(), which OwnPtr does not. I wonder if such addition to OwnPtr would be welcome.

> 2. Create a smart pointer to be used for types that need to call free/g_free. We could probably start afresh from OwnFastMallocPtr.h, which is very light-weight.

Looking at it, using OwnFastMallocPtr itself would already solve my char* management issues. I'm open to ideas on where to put g_free() in the code flow.
