See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=319247 - for example, the Google Live handler should be visible somehow in the Preferences UI, but it does need configuring (e.g., a key and WSDL). Otherwise (as on a clean install), it won't work, and for that reason we currently hide it, rather than show it "disabled". UI mock-up attached. "More..." pops up help (yelp!? not that I know how that works) or further instructions or another dialog (yeah, that's not so cool)?? This little info-area hides itself for perfectly happy, no-configuration-needed handlers. Thoughts? Nigel. P.S. Also, I'm thinking of being able to install new handlers like we install new themes - just drag 'n' dropping the .py (or possibly .tar.gz, if we need other resources like art or translations or help?) onto the Handlers tree-view.
