Re: [RFC] avahi-ui

Hi!

As you might have already read on p.g.o I plan to include a new
standard dialog for browsing for Avahi services called "avahi-ui"
in the next Avahi release:

http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/avahify-your-app.html

(the screenshots that can be seen in that story are slightly
out-of-date, see below for a newer screenshot)

I would like to ask you to do a quick review of the current API I am
proposing for avahi-ui, and the HIG conformity of the UI before I
include this in the final release of Avahi 0.6.18.

The current API looks like this:

http://avahi.org/browser/trunk/avahi-ui/avahi-ui.h

It is modelled after GtkFileChooserDialog. A simple (but not trivial)
example of its usage is "zssh", a small utility which allows you
to browse for local avahi-enabled SSH or VNC servers (such as vino)
and which will start ssh or xvncviewer after you selected one:

Just one question of the API, when does
aui_service_dialog_set_service_name() make sense? What will the effect
be? Initial selection?
