--- Comment #1 from Michael Catanzaro <mcatanzaro at gnome.org> ---
More specifically, we can use G_DECLARE_FINAL_TYPE for most types, and G_DECLARE_DERIVABLE_TYPE for the few that need to be derivable.

This will make the header files more complicated for now, because it's an ABI change, so we have to keep all the boilerplate for the older API versions. But when we eventually remove the older API versions, then we can remove the boilerplate, and the headers will be cleaner. So it's worth it.
