	;-) The simple reason is that that is a process local resorce. We have
to stream to a meta context, then to a stream, then re-render locally to
the master context.

	There was a core implementation in bonobo 1.0, I ported it to Gnome 2.0
but Chema seems to have binned it - I don't know where that work went -
Chema ? Copies of the original 1.0 version are in CVS module 'bonobo'
bonobo/bonobo-print*.

	What do you want to use this for though ?

	HTH,
