Description Stefan Sauer (gstreamer, gtkdoc dev) 2005-07-25 21:13:11 UTC 
the following methods should imho use G_CONST_RETURN
gtk_*_get_model()
gtk_combo_box_get_popup_accessible()
gtk_widget_get_accessible()

the last need docs at all.

We don't use const for refcounted objects in general. (After all, 
you then couldn't *ref* those objects, unless g_object_ref() took
a const GObject. And that would be sort of strange for a method
that modifies the reference count to take a const object.
