I think GObject is just fine: it reinforces the fact that the library
serves as the object-oriented framework. But that's not all it used
for. It's used for just about every possible type: abstract types,
generic types, boxed types, interface types, member (ParamSpec) types,
and of course class types.
So the name GType might also be appropriate.
