Hey, we need the application anyway ;)

My question about the library is what dependencies can it have, this is, 
it needs to depend on libscg from cdrtools if it is going to have 
advanced features like "detect if the CD is appendable". If the library 
is only meant to be a wrapper for cdrecord and cdrdao, it can be 
installed without problems and then fail with "you need cdrdao in order 
to burn CDs".

For the RB needs, a wrapper will do. What I would like to see is the 
"configure once", so that the config is shared between gnome apps and 
even between desktops. Can KDE read the gconf keys?
