 > - We can't include binaries in Sugar. If your feature has external
 dependencies, make sure it is packaged in the major distros and it will be
 added as a dependency by packagers. Please document this carefully, and
 bear in mind that pulling extra dependencies consumes storage capacity
 which is scarce in most contexts.

 use them. That way if the user switches from GNOME to Sugar or vice versa,
 her changes will remain in effect.

 gnome-settings-daemon listens for changes in gconf and configures X
 appropriately:

 http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-settings-daemon/tree/plugins/a11y-
 keyboard/gsd-a11y-keyboard-manager.c#n386

 I think we should do the same because 'ax' is not widely available in
 distros.
