Ah!  This is correct.  Just document that as `Internal constructor'.

StartEditing becomes "virtual" because it is an implementation of an
interface method.  So even if the virtual keyword does not appear on the
source, it is virtual due to its interface implementation nature.

Heh.  It would be nice to document Gst, but the impact of documenting
this is lower (because fewer people will be using it) that say, a
GtkLabel or a GtkNotebook.
