new-instance will contact the gnome-name-server corba service and see
if a copy of the file manager is already running. If it is, we get
back a handle to the factory CORBA object and we ask the factory to
create a new window. If the file manager factory has not been
started, the gnome-name-server will launch gmc for you.
So, it is the right approach without kludges.
(Now, I just need Elliot to rename goad-browser --with-repo-id to
new-instance).
Miguel.
