        Ok - the trick is to aggregate a BonoboItemHandler to the Control
- this means that during the moniker resolution process you have a
'GetObject' callback invoked in your code.

        Jacob has a particularly neat handler in 'file-sel' to automate
setting property bag properties this way.

        HTH,

                Michael.
