<chrisccoulson> desrt, is it a bug to call g_object_new from within a class_init function?
<desrt> yesish
<chrisccoulson> desrt, heh, i thought as much (see bug 1179554) ;)
<ubot2> Launchpad bug 1179554 in ibus (Ubuntu) "Firefox hang on start because ibus calls g_object_new inside a class_init function" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1179554
<desrt> it's not strictly a bug
but you should only be doing a very limited number of things in class_init
properties, signals, vfunc overrides
