IMHO: If there is a set of well-maintained and mature bindings for a particular language that is needed for a particular cool app that should be in the desktop, then I don't see any problem with including that set of bindings in the desktop. Lets focus on making users life good (cool apps) instead of focusing on making devs life good (less bindings to maintain). Conversively, if there is a set of unmaintained, buggy and underused bindings for a particular language in teh desktop, then I don't see any problem with removing that set of bindings from the desktop.
