yeah. entrance needs some loving and its sorely negelected of late :(

dont even enable the cairo engine. its 1. incomplete (only image and rect
objects supported), 2. dead slow (cairo's problem) its about 20-30 times slower
than evas's own software engine. just --disable cairo and don't worry :)

e17genmenu on sf.net (search for it) should work reading .desktop entry trees
from netwm repos and make an eapp tree.
