GNOME never gave an opinion on the spec, we gave an opinion on the

a bunch of the applications I maintain, and I get to receive a large
number of crashers because of it).
I can not comment on the quality of the library, but GNOME did comment
on the spec[0] (or rather: several gnomers did) - there were a couple of
objections, none of which have been addressed in the spec as far as I
can tell.
