Foreach + remove feels awkward to me. Sure, it's a linked list and
should be fineā„¢, but I don't like the lack of documentation of
interactions here as a non-glib user. (I mean, eg. for C++ iterator
invalidation is *usually* documented...)

Can't we just give `struct Client` a `struct CleanupData` pointer and
call `g_slist_remove` right here without the iteration?

Or better yet, your previous idea of dropping `CleanupData` sounds
better.
We should be able to just add `struct Client*` to the list, after all,
according to the glib docs `g_slist_remove` should simply leave the list
unchanged if the data is not part of the list, so when we free up the
`Client` we could even call `g_slist_remove` unconditionally (though
we'll know whether it's in there by having a timeout set then...)

(or use `g_slist_find_custom`)
