hi! I am getting in the middle of the discussion, sorry!
maybe I can participate from an user point of view:

this behavior Mark suggested in nautilus would make me quite happy.

viewers in nautilus using bonobo are a great idea when
applied to the right task. in general, when a file is to be:

a) previewed -> nautilus embedding is ok, stand-alone app is ok too
b) edited -> stand-alone app is ok, nautilus feels weird

that brings a question wether a double-click means to view or to 
edit a file.  am I talking rubbish? :)
