While this sucks indeed, the alternative would be to make the `Eq` / `PartialEq` impls incoherent: Only `gio::File` (and other selected types) have a proper equality function, but if you...

Yes but those don't have the complications of inheritance so that's easy.

Note that this implementation is unsound with `panic="unwind"`. If the object is actually still alive, you somehow need to get rid of the weak pointer or some time later the...
This is apparently not too useful because `g_application_run()` and `g_main_loop_run()` are not pushing their main context as the thread default one.
Maybe something like this. It would take the thread-default main context if any, otherwise the global default. And then make sure that the current thread actually owns it.
I guess there is not really any interest in having such a function? Let's close this then?
I got no feedback at all so I assumed nobody actually needed it :) As it's apparently useful to you, do you have suggestions about the name and where to...
