Well, OK - point taken =O)  Making it even *more* dependent then.  I got 
Enlightenment up and running on Solaris fairly easily, and on RedHat Linux 5.1 
even easier, so I don't think it was too bad.

No - just make a Gnome Pager that *can* be E complient.  No need to touch Gnome 
as a whole.  There's an FVWM-pager already, isn't there?  Same thing for E.

Only better.

And if Raster is in charge of the Gnome-Pager already - well, we can dream, 
can't we?
