well the mime data sharing is really the right thing to do if you look
at the system wholistically.  i don't think anyone wants to configure
images to open in eog in nautilus 2, but have evolution do something
different.

having every app's data in one tarbal and not with the app is the wrong
thing to do.

if gnome-vfs knew that we had incompatible component systems then it
wouldn't be so much of a problem...
