I guess its obvious why I asked, but in case it isn't, GGL seems
really cool, like something that we should ship with QGIS and SEXTANTE
but the java depency will probably always relegate it to a non-bundled
functionality (unless we can get broad agreement to make java a
dependency on your system when installing QGIS).
