Bar telling "no new service please, HAL can launch things as needed".

Yeah, that's it.

I also quite like the "users don't want another daemon running",
coming from the HAL/udev/FAM/gconfd side. I'm forgetting a couple, I'm
sure.

I'm quite sick of the desktop people trying to overtake
everything. Everything is not a desktop, the desktop is only one use
case. And we DO care about it, thanks very much.

Integrating WITH a desktop doesn't mean writing the whole stack FOR
the desktop. There are things that must be taken into consideration in
the process, but that's it.

Now, please try to understand that.

JB.
