I have this marked to reply to properly later, but something came up in
IRC.
Perhaps libcanberra could be optionally added to this edje sound stuff
for XDG system sounds support. It could be like edje fonts - the edje
scripter can choose to use a font built in to the edje, or a system
font. So they could choose to use a sound built into the edje, via the
sound stuff that's there already, or a system sound via libcanberra.
We can blame k-s for the basic idea of using libcanberra, devilhorns
and I added the "we can do both" part.
