There must be some misunderstanding.  First, I don't see how a user
would get access to all the GMP functions without get_mpz_t() (e.g., suppose
one needs to use mpz_popcount()).  Secondly, even if you provide other mechanisms
to interface _all_ mpz functions, I think you should still support get_mpz_t()
for backward compatibility.  Finally, take into account that the current C++
wrapper supports, in addition to mpz, mpq and mpf.
All the best,
