Indeed, it is.  Unfortunately, I was not aware of webeyes when I started
coding my own applet.  Perhaps it should be advertised on
gnomefiles.org?

Apart from superficial UI differences, the main difference is that the
Deskbar applet can support multiple search engines (including
non-URL-based engines like gnome-dictionary and Beagle/BEST).

Nigel.

P.S.  patch attached that makes webeyes work with GNOME 2.10's panel.
Also, webeyes/src/GNOME_WebEyes_Factory.server.in.in seems to have a
spurious "1;5A".
