I'm not sure I follow this idea of adding calls in atk.  If atk-bridge
stops being a gtk plugin that is dynamically loaded then either people
need to link directly to some new library, libatk needs to link to that
library, or atk needs to include that code in itself.  sI tend to think
the last of these options is the best since tighter integration between
atk and the adaptor should allow a bunch of abstractions to go away.

Well, can't distributions just continue to ship the current
libatk-adaptor for them, and assuming we don't change the dbus protocol
I think everything should just keep working.

We also need to consider how this set up would work with non gtk apps,
and apps that mostly aren't gtk but embed some gtk widgets.

I'd tend to think this is the right path to minimize risk in the case too
much stuff doesn't work or performance suffers.
