I really don't think gnome-shell-dialogs is that bad a name. "gdialog2"
would still be better than "zenity".

Which brings us to another important point. How do you plan to version this
API? In GNOME3, when zenity has changed its API, will people have to use
zenity2 instead, or will all scripts need to be rewritten for the new API?
