I don't see how it couldn't be a function of GnomeObjectClient instead,
and have GnomeObjectClient contain a hash of qi'd for interfaces,
and have every 'client-side' call wrapped with a function that
takes a GnomeObjectClient as the first argument (instead of using
the CORBA function directly and passing in the CORBA_Object)
