Most already do but we need to make sure that for all of them, libslab has appropriate fallback behavior if the key is not set and if the value of the key does not exist.  All these keys are currently installed by gnome-main-menu

/apps/libslab (without the control-center bit) would be better, much
shorter. Also, we need to change the slab acronym, so what about just
using control-center? I can't think of a better name, although it
doesn't really describe what libslab is. So, another option is to just
use the same prefix that is used in libgnome/ui, and have a section
there for $slab (whatever we call it)

I would take the chance to move it to the preferred applications
capplet. Luca, what do you think?

this makes sense in /apps/gnome-main-menu
