Is this a replacement in libgnome, or another library?  I think it was
in the wrong place to begin with, but that's understandable given there
was no games library.

But if there's going to be a games library (and there should), it would
be the ideal place.  Perhaps it's time to start looking at it.  It could
be distributed with gnome-games, but marked as experimental (ie unstable
API, not for production use outside of gnome-games).

One interesting question would be whether it would be back/front end
separated into two libraries, or just logically separated within the one
library.
