It should be noted that I'm no huge fan of Bonobo. Abi doesn't use bonobo 
extensively. We actually don't use it much at all - I wrote a GtkWidget that 
wraps AbiWord. Martin made that AbiWidget work better and wrapped it with a 
Bonobo interface. I plan on making the control support streams and printing 
and other bonobo-integration stuff in the near future. However I'm not going 
to convert Abi's innards to use Bonobo*. I'm planning on doing a mapping 
from our proven and tested codebase to the Bonobo calls via an intelligent 
mapping system and code reuse. Most if not all Bonobo work done in Abi *in 
the near future* will be working on making that widget better and making the 
mappings between that widget and Bonobo work flawlessly.
