I will add the example code I wrote earlier (the one with 
boost::shared_ptr<>)
to bugzilla. If anyone pops up with a satisfying solution for this I will
work this solution into gstmm, make it the default behaviour and remove
manage(). Only then would it really be redundant. Until then I won't change
the code of Gst::Object.
