"The Interface Library may provide fallback provisions in case a target system 
does not provide the IPC protocol and/or the required desktop services. 
Application developers are NOT supposed to include a desktop services 
implementation along with their application as fallback."

 That's still an open question [*]. My current plan is to go with a fallback 
daemon.

 Maybe also "Portland intends to deliver two sets of interfaces." should be 
reworded to rather say something along the lines of "that's the plan for now 
but if you have a better idea nobody's stopping you".
