I think it still makes sense to be able to call the resource manager from within 
an application, so that you don't have to switch applications explicitly to open 
another file after you have finished reading one. But yes, it definitely needs

Visual integration needs to be done as well, yes. Hopefully it's rather easy to 
replace the widgets used with our Components...?
