The `bad design` comment is due the fact that you can't use it although
you can in a C plugin.

Fetching something (async) which might be necessary for plugin
initialization is a use case: In C you could unregister the source in
case of problems... in this source would be registered but would always
fail the operations.

I agree.. but I'm unable to see a way that the grl.callback could stay
as it is from George's implementation.
