While I appreciate the notion that a hello world should be quick and to
the point, I think this particular way of adding a separate mechanism
for the detail view that is never used beyond hello world, is about the
equivalent of saying that the following code is a good "GTK" hello
world example:
I think the ViewableKind approach is appropriate for an Item that you
don't intend to be stampable, or not display a detail view with the
stamping bar.
main() {
printf("Hello, world, from gtk!");
}

I suppose I favor having both, with an emphasis today on the shortest
example that can be made to do useful work. But I should be able to
"graduate" to a fully-stamped (or whatever else ViewableKind doesn't
give you) parcel via sample code tested and included in the 0.6 release.
I would probably include ViewableKind in 0.6 if the full example is also
done and the shorter example is the only thing that uses ViewableKind.
Risk seems low in that case, even if ViewableKind has bugs. At least, I
would start with the ViewableKind model if it were offered and required
no patching.
