IMHO the result needs more work for non-GNOME desktop environments.

If I run it on non-GNOME, then I get the window manager's title bar
followed by the virt-viewer titlebar, duplicating the min/max/close
buttons and the window title.  This wastes screen real estate and
looks pretty ugly, so I think we need to do better than that for
non-GNOME. ie, keep the original menu bar as-is for non-GNOME
desktops, and don't display the new fat header bar.

Daniel
