	Yes, but that's only half of it we do embedding in a different way at
the Gtk+ level with the arrival of the XEmbed protocol.

	Yes - you would have to use something like:

	/usr/bin/oaf-client -s "iid == 'OAFIID:Bonobo_Sample_Entry'"

	Forked, which would return the IOR to you [ and some junk you'd have to
parse out ]. Then you could talk via CORBA. Using controls is pretty
much a lost cause, but using some of the evolution interfaces for
various bits should be doable.

	Regards,
