        Just a quick note on this point - currently the BonoboControls die
if they are unrealized - for some reason [ probably the horribly
convoluted destruction code ] the internal widget is destroyed - but only
if they are remote.
  
        This needs to be fixed, since we can't re-parent remote 
BonoboControls in Bonobo 1.0, so the semantics of this need to be
addressed.
  
        Regards,
  
                Michael.
