this is kind of a non-issue since e is clearly designed to be a
complete, featureful window manager even without gnome. the buttons
around the outside of the desktop are part of the default theme; i
imagine somebody who distributes enlightenment with gnome (for instance,
red hat) would probably design a different (more conservative?) default
theme that doesn't include this duplicate functionality.

i tried out e back in november; i simply deleted the button section from
my config files to get rid of them by default.
