Well, as long as the rules are generated mechanically enough, and the
user isn't allowed to edit them, it shouldn't be too awful.

No, you need to edit the one in /etc, to tell it to look in /opt/evo for
components. Though apparently you can/should do this by doing:

        /usr/sbin/bonobo-activation-sysconf --add-directory=/opt/evo/lib/bonobo/servers

rather than editting the file by hand.
