I'm not averse to this, really. We do need some of the upcoming
features - such as file selector, or whatever - to be in a lib where
some people are willing to test them.

I was hoping to bring up this issue as soon as we start in on GTK 2.2
plans. (But anyone else can feel free, when they start planning the
next point release of other platform libs.)

Maybe we can prototype three different filesel designs, in each of
eel, gal, and gnome-desktop! ;-)
