In addition to introspection, add an option to create high level clients with code generation.

This may involve extending the introspection format with doc comments (gtkdoc has a spec for this).

Advantages:

You don't need to rely on introspection
You don't need to include introspection xml in your project or get it dynamically
Better code completion
Better support for enum types and property types
You can include common interfaces in the library

I'm working on this, and have initial promising work. I'll hopefully be able to share more soon.
