Would make nimble install faster and may avoid issues.

We may do that, but note that gobject-introspection generates bindings customized for the actual computer where it is executed. Generated files depends on GTK versions, operating system and 64/32 bit.

I could provide ready made interface modules for latest GTK3 64 bit. But then 32 bit and GTK4 would be missing for Linux, and Windows and Mac bindings would be missing too. And I am not sure if the bindings would compile and work when people have older or newer GTK versions installed on the local computer -- I guess it may work.

I am willing to provide ready made bindings as a fallback if we see that people really have trouble with current install method.
