Hi Martin,

I'm pretty confused; what exactly is a ditem moniker for and what on
earth does it have to do with bonobo-config?  As in, as I understand it,
a .desktop file is meant to be used mainly for defining a way to launch
an application, describe it in a menu, etc.  It's really simple, has a
well defined spec, and is used in only a few places in GNOME (mostly the
panel and nautilus)?  Can you explain the rationale for having it here?
I don't fully understand.
