No, they are actually related
You should check the libgirepository API which is backed up by a binary typelib.

The main thing that seems to be missing from libgirepository's dynamic invocation, relative to the "GProxy" proposal, is cross-language support. Currently, it seems libgirepository only supports invocation of C functions via libffi. What about just basing that on GClosure instead, with a libffi implementation of GClosure (I think one already exists)?
