Re: [Evolution-hackers] showing the toplevel Evolution window

[Not Zed <notzed ximian com>]

I would suggest (I could be wrong here, I am but a humble(?) mail hacker), that if there is no direct bonobo-ui api to do this (window raise/present, etc) you may need to add such an api to the shell component itself.  Noting that you may have mutliple windows up too (which really complicates matters).

Perhaps on the other hand it can be done via the show-uri method, but pass in the folder you want to show, and the shell can decide if it needs to pop it to the front or not?
