I requested last cycle for a help button to be put into the File Chooser dialog [1], and the general feeling I got back from the GTK people was that they didn't want a dependency on parts of the gnome desktop going in GTK. (Yes, this is banging my drum again, but it seems relevant to the discussion of the GTK/GNOME divide.)
