Re: Merging GnomeVolumeControl in libgnome-desktop

["Jasper St. Pierre" <jstpierre mecheye net>]

There's a lot of code that's shared between gnome-shell and
gnome-control-center. gvc is one example, but there's also
gnome-bluetooth. Given the rise of gnome-initial-setup, which is what
I'm working on, we're considering having a libgd-like thing like
libgnometweak that various tweaking things should use.
