I think trying to use epiphany storage directly call problems :)
What about to extend the corba interface or to right one for bookmarks
instead and use it to get info from epiphany ? (You need epiphany
running though, even with no windows, that doesnt matter).
If you give me more details about what you want to implement ui wise I
can try to help designing it ...
