I didn't think so :-(This was a rather obscure question, but the answer has
implications that I've been thinking about.  How could you make it work?

CORBA bindings for gtk/gnome?

Is it possible to hack a GtkContainer for the capplet that is corresponds to
the container in the control-center?  Basically, what is required to let
widgets run in different namespaces, but in the same window?
