Ok, I understand. The only thing I am aware of is eog-preferences.c, which
uses the property name "bonobo:title" to pass the title for PropertyControl
pages, so you should not use that name if you plan to use PropertyControls.

I just meant different server backends, for example if you use GConf to store
the values you can also modify the values through GConf. But maybe
bonobo-conf is the only code that uses such things.
