I think this is all basically a non-issue. What may be an issue is the
number of binaries in $prefix/bin... Do all the capplets (yes I know I
shouldn't use that word) really have to go there? Can't we put them some
place else? Yes this would break people who manually start the capplets,
they'ld have to type in the complete path, but apart from that I don't
think anything else would break, if we changed the .desktop files.

Same comment for gconfd-2, can't we put it in $prefix/lib or something,
nobody should start it manually anyway, it's started by libgconf, and
that can be changed too...

Kind regards,
