Sounds like a useful plugin and the code looks well written.

I'd suggest adopting your plugin to the new composer in Evolution 2.23,
which no longer uses Bonobo.  Instead, you can extend menus and toolbar
by way of GtkUIManager.

A new EPlugin hook called EPluginUI replaces EMenu and EPopup for
classes that use GtkUIManager.  Bug #525241 [1] introduces EPluginUI and
gives a short walkthrough of how we adapted the "Face" plugin to use it.

I wrote EPluginUI, and I'd be happy to answer any questions about it.
