Hmm, no. I want to use a RB native interface there, to make burning
audio cds really seamless.

We don't need a bonobo object IMHO. If we get a nice little API which
supports cd burning operations, like iso generation, audio burning, etc,
this can be used by all apps that need to do cd burning, so we avoid
code duplication (which is the hardest part in this kind of apps,
duplicating all that doesnt make sense. Plus it will make sure if you
configure the burning system once, it will work for all apps).

Will do :)
