 * Description
 * GParamSpec is an object structure that encapsulates the metadata

 * Parameter names need to start with a letter (a-z or A-Z). Subsequent
 * characters can be letters, numbers or a '-'.
 * All other characters are replaced by a '-' during construction.
 * The result of this replacement is called the canonical name of the
 * parameter.
