i'm not sure how you use it, however, as a GObject property
(or a container child property) you get to specify the pspec
for the value array, and if that has an element_spec != NULL,
it enforces all values to comply to that type.
of course you could also use that pspec with a value array
if you don't use the values for properties, you just need to
validate (g_param_value_validate()) the value array with a pspec
that has an element_spec and you're set.
