The latter, but it is hard to tell, since it is all `not mere web links,
but solid code "immersed" into the desktop'.  I think I saw a popup
window which looked like a web page asking for Google authentication at
one point, similar to the picture in:

  http://www.iloveubuntu.net/online-accounts-landed-ubuntu-1210-default

I guess I am using UOA, I tried to delete the authorization info I could
find in the gconf.xml files under .shotwell, but it didn't seem to
change anything.  I'll try to hunt and destroy any UOA stuff.

Right, thanks.

I really wish people would stop the immersing thing, it just confuses
things and makes them more complex and fragile.
