It is used to represent the GBoxed type, which wraps structures like GdkRectangle or GtkColor (IIRC). I can't think of a use outside of PyGObject, I think wrapped objects are promoted to PyObjects when storing in things like a gtk.ListStore. I suspect it is enumerated for completeness, you don't need to worry about it.
