I'm glad Thomas queried this point in an earlier mail: Your question is
backwards, implying that the Bonobo interface is the simpler of the two.

My preference would be for a library that many applications, GNOME or not,
could use, and if required, a Bonobo interface to that. The library may even
include it. This seems to be the kinder way of designing things in the post-
Bonobo-religion world of GNOME. :-)

But I'm not writing the code, just waving my hands in the air.
