        Anyhow - the suggestion is, assuming we can find/cleanup this sort of
badness [ incidentally a GObject takes a reference on itself during it's
destruction to avoid double destruction ], is it a good idea to have an
abort/assert whatever is fashionable in run-time code so we can be
confident that we have caught these cases earlier ? I for one prefer an
assertion-fail abort-app to a hard-to-catch memory corrupter later.


My motto : "Fail early, fail hard"
Causes some screaming early on, then later on, generates a pleasant quietness from the people using my software :-)
