Invalid because of not enforced up to now - the GIMP already XORs for
a lot of years now...  :-)

I just started a bit hacking on it. I went at bug 108318 first
but removing the strong reference causes all sort of weird crashes
in other places. How could the vectors tool be notified when its
path gets removed? GIMP_IS_VECTORS () most probably won't help, since
the location where the pointer points to most probably still is a valid
GimpVectors - on the Undo Stack...
