Sounds reasonable. My only concern is getting upstreams on board. Upstream
evolution (afaik) doesn't really expect you to be running their software as
a part of your session, so we'd have to make the UI decision as to how this
works. Somewhere buried in evolution's preferences? Or can we automatically
do it somehow if the indicator is in use? (chicken-and-egg perhaps).
