Yes, a problem indeed. I think Allan is aiming to use something else
(distributed objects) to provide the necessary interface. I think
launching faceless background applications etc. is very ugly. A more
general, more Cocoa way of doing it (also since ODB really has very
poor Cocoa support) would be nice. Allan can correct me if I am wrong,
but I think that is what is planned :-).
