Hey We won't be using ORBit or some other middleware. I remember I had a informal discussion on this with Jeroen (one of the, if not the, lead programmers on Scaffold - an IDE), and campd, and we had thought that it would be just simple and nice to provide a simple C interface. And on top of that people can make bindings for languages like C++, Ruby, Java, Python etc..
Now, work towards making this happen hasn't been deliberately started, but the way the code in glade-3 works is such that it is possible to do so with relative ease. This is because all components are seperate classes (good ol' OO programming :D). All we need is 1) some more discussion on a standard API 2) someone to code a shared library layer to encapsulate all of these components Both relatively simple (Hey! This ain't the GtkFileSelector :-) ) to do if someone gets down to it Cheers!
