It makes sense to build many kinds of applications using (at least) two different levels and languages. Those being C+GObject, and a managed (GC'd) runtime. C is good for graphics, multimedia, and lower level systems work. However, writing complex software is difficult and error-prone without garbage collection. A managed runtime such as JavaScript, Python, Java, Lua, .NET, Scheme etc. makes a lot of sense for non-fast-path application logic such as configuration, layout, dialogs, etc.
Thus, one of the major goals of the GObject introspection project is to be a convenient bridge between these two worlds, and allow you to choose the right tool for the job, rather than being limited inside one or the other. With the introspection project, you can write for example a ClutterActor or GtkWidget subclass in C, and then without any additional work use that class inside JavaScript.
