And yet I'm strongly tempted to do the same for strings that are duplicated every time I fetch them too. I have probably still lots of memory leaks in apps from the time before I found this out. I'd like some G_TYPE_STRING_DONT_DUPLICATE_IT_LIKE_MAD and G_TYPE_OBJECT_DONT_REFERENCE_IT_LIKE_MAD column types. And I wonder how many people is still unaware of it and happily leak memory...
