That looks very interesting. I particularly like the idea of the frontend 
using XML to describe the configuration to be passed to the backend allowing 
easy archival of configurations and thus easy undo.

How GNOME-specific is the backend and the connection between the frontend and 
backend? Could we write Qt/KDE frontends that use to the backends written by 
GNOME?

Ciao,
