Description Murray Cumming 2013-07-22 11:32:01 UTC 
GTK+ *_new() functions typically just call g_object_new() with the appropriate property values, allowing language bindings to do the same thing in their "constructors", but with their own derived GType. Language bindings can't do that when the C function has extra implementation as gtk_menu_new_from_model():
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/tree/gtk/gtkmenu.c#n5605

It's not terrible, because it's a small function that can easily be reimplemented, but it's not ideal.
