Hi Daniel, If you want to request or suggest a change to the documentation, you are better off filing a bug against gnome-devel-docs.
However, in this case I'm not sure whether this really is an issue with the docs or what you're doing. :) You might be best to ask in #gtk+ on irc.gnome.org for advise from a developer.
