I've been meaning to finish up the in-development bits that I've already
got. I did plan on having made a release two weeks ago so things aren't
that far off.

I'm actually going to take out the Gnome2 bits and do my best to replace
them with Pure Perl implementations (they won't be all the goodness that
comes from Gnome2 but they'll at least get the job done in a somewhat
comparable fashion).

I believe it's only used for Gnome2::VFS and maybe the file choosing
dialogs but I do know that it's certainly not critical to the general
dialog functionality nor is it something I should have done in the first
place.

Sure, doesn't even have to be complete or even related to the Gnome2
issues. These dialogs are meant as convenience utilities and if you've
got any other such things that may fit in the namespace I can add them
to the todo list if they aren't implementable in the time I've got
allotted for working on this.

Absolutely not a problem! :)
