Because GNOME is a platform and thus has some specific stuff, like all
other platforms?

Sure, some (or most?) of this specific stuff could go in GTK+ or a GTK+
module. But I'm not convinced we can come with a good cross-platform API
for lockdown (since not all platforms will be able to lock the same
things), or that the applet API should be in a separate library
(especially if we're going with a new cool API that applications will
want to use instead of adding icons in the notification area).
