Aside from the fact that ghex is the only sad remaining program that
uses libgnomeprint, is there any real reason we don't want this in the
UI spec?

Am I the only person in the world who still finds a hex editor, and the
ability to launch it from the menu, useful?  Wait, a minute, I don't
think I've ever actually used it.  Maybe I just don't do enough assembly
programming.

I think it is kind of a useful application, but it isn't really a part
of the offical GNOME distribution.  It doesn't seem that well
maintained.  Perhaps it would be good to see if there are any 
alternative programs we could be shipping instead.  Hex editing for the
new century, or something?

At any rate, if we are removing this from the OpenSolaris menus, why not
the Nevada menus as well?  I'd think we should be consistent, or that
Nevada should have fewer things than OpenSolaris (not the other way
around).
