So something like this?
gboolean lastViewOfDocument(SPDocument* doc, SPDesktop* view) const;
Nearly. Two things:
- s/gboolean/bool/
In general do we prefer bool over gboolean? I notice many instances of gboolean in the Gtk+ code, should I be changing those to bool as I reimplement them in Gtkmm?

Yes!
gboolean is troublesome as it doesn't maintain the (sort of) expected invariant that ( value == 1 ) == value, and we've had a few bugs due to that over the years. C++'s bool type does.
That aside, using standard language types is preferable anyway. A lot of the SPDesktop etc stuff shouldn't really need to rely on glib/glibmm for anything.
