While the g-s-t are useful, I'm not in favour of including them in
desktop itself until we get further to consolidate the random
elements of control-center with the user oriented tools in g-s-t.
Along the lines of havoc/seth's top down approach.  The more admin
tools will ideally have a similar shell at some point for ui
consistency, but probably need less of a top down design.

The control-center maintainers (aka jonathan, seth, and I) need to
get off our butts and help make this happen rather than siting here
whining.
