If it depends on Gnome--, it can only be included if we include gtk--
and gnome--. gnome-- is a bit in doubt, since Karl would have to
commit to freezing the API to have it inlcuded in GNOME 1.4. I'd like
Karl's thoughts on this (also Goerge and Jacob's).

This sounds like something we might want to put in gnome-media. Is
there a reason not to? (Assuming we resolve the Gnome-- issue).

This sounds like something we might want in gnome-games. Any reason
not to do that? (Assuming we resolve the Gnome-- issue).

Other than gnome-games, I don't think we should include arbitrary
other games with the core desktop (a few amusements are expected,
anything past that should be considered extras I think).
