	It may have eluded your research, but the XML in question (UI
description) forms a part of the Bonobo UI API, which is built on top of a
CORBA transport between a component and a container which may reside on
different machines.

	I see no useful use of gnome-vfs here. A stream API on the other
hand for streaming images - yes.

	Regards,
