In doc/en/Entry.xml, there is a public constructor on line 277 that
takes a raw IntPtr. I would have thought the details of it should be
hidden?

There are lots of virtual methods in that same xml file (from line 59)
that do not appear in my generated Entry.cs file. Should they be
documented?

Does Gst# have a maintainer? I've found it a great API to use, but has a
couple of bugs, and I'd like to ensure it's "supported" to wrap 
GStreamer 0.6.0 rather than the dated 0.4.2 it currently wraps.

If the above happens, I would hope that the priority and usefulness of
Gst# docs would go up. :)
