  Supporting a generic bonobo plugin shouldn't be hard, though.  It
would just be a shim between the existing interfaces and what bonobo
provides.  
      
Isn't this exactly what mozilla-bonobo is?
    

Yes indeed. It's actually composed of 2 parts: the plugin
itself, and an executable (the "viewer"). The plugin launches
the viewer and passes it the XID it got from Mozilla. The
viewer then creates a GtkPlug with that XID, to which the
bonobo component is then added. The plugin and the viewer
communicate through pipes.

  
Sounds perfect.
