I found this hard to understand at first, but it seems that time and
some coffee has helped a lot... I've just managed to get an example
working which subclasses Gtk::Application and implements on_open, and it
works perfectly.

Thank you very much for the help. Now I'm off to properly understand how
things are supposed to work with g_application_activate() and
g_application_open() etc. (And, of course, their C++ bindings)
