By the way I'll be mostly offline until next Thursday, so don't be surprised if I fail to reply to new comments right away. >I was unsure about some of them: >* The system bus can only be written to by the Kernel, so it cannot be used >for the sudo case as suggested by you.

Both of those are sort of hacks, and the gconf key dependency should be gone in gnome 2.17 (i.e. soon after the current freeze lifts). The intention is that the desktop's session manager (either gnome-session or KDE's session manager) will launch at-spi-registryd if AT support is desired, and thus GOK will detect this instead of checking gconf. So the short answer is "yes, though you might need a small hack to bootstrap things in the current version".
