The problem is that there should be some method for system

I've thought about this one already, but haven't really come up with any
fantastic solutions.  If anyone can think of one, I'd be willing to help
work on it.

Wouldn't this just be another GConf issue?  GConf allows sysadmins to
set user, workgroup and enterprise-wide permissions (for example) on all
manner of desktop things, providing we can persuade the maintainers of
those desktop things to use GConf to store their configuarations anytime
soon...

Cheeri,
