Hello,

the GnomeClient API is for some apps the single Gnome dependency that
has no GTK equivalent and that keeps said apps tied to the >25 or so
platform libraries. Other libgnome(ui) uses are gnome_program_init() and
gnome_help_display() which can be replaced by gtk_init variants and
directly spawning gnome-open or yelp.

Could there be a per application analysis of whether GnomeClient is
really needed and whether it can be discarded or replaced by using the
simple X API directly? I see it's on the Ridley TODO list but with no
alternative proposed.

thank you
Jani
