I don't think adding huge dependencies only for plugins is welcomed.
A C/C++ API is far enough and quite simple to use. People that are willing
to use Gobject or anyhting else are free to wrap the wrappers.

By the way, your proposed API is promising (through i also love
CamelCasing and i'd prefered a C++ API).
