Then I was confused by the following, since "initially" doesn't
mean "always", does it?

- gtk+ >= 2.8.10 + glib >= 2.10,
 GObject is initially non floating;
 GObject offers floating API:
   g_object_is_floating(), g_object_ref_sink(), g_object_force_floating()

But well, all I need is to know that GtkTreeModel will not have floating
reference and I don't need to check docs or sources to know whether I
should sink it or not.
