Bonobo will have a set of 'Control' in the near future, which will be
exactly what we're looking for I think. Controls are objects that
expose bits of gui through corba. This will be much better suited
for both MooonSooon parts and the gnome-debug UI Components. instead
of the UiProvider interface, I'd suggest something like:

	enum DebugControl {
		LOCALS_VIEW,
		DISPLAYS_VIEW,
		BREAKPOINT_MANAGER
	};
	GNOME::Control create_ui_part (in DebugControl type);

in GNOME::Debugger::Frontend.

cya,
