Use of complete GList functionality? Change to GSList?

Is a KVP_TYPE_GLIST guaranteed to always just a list of kvp_values?
If so, then I can deal with that :)

One of my major issues with the GList construct is that there is no
way to validate the _type_ of list you've got.  In other words, there
is no way to be assured that you have list of type foo.  I could pass
a GList of type foo to a function that is expecting a GList of type
bar, and there is no way to detect that.  :(
