Jani:

Currently at-spi depends on Bonobo and exposes some Bonobo interfaces via its
header files.  This would probably need some rework before libbonobo could
completely go away.  There has been some talk, I think, about using D-Bus
instead.  However, I don't know of any plans at the moment to rewrite this.

For the time being, I think the GNOME community is supporting libbonobo only
for special use cases, like accessibility.  Probably other approaches like
D-Bus would make sense for new applications.
