I think it'd be better as a VFS addon, and with a VFS browser library  
that can be embedded in applications without adding much code - seems  
simpler than relying on Gollem (also, folks have expressed a  
preference for Gollem to stay a client without full document  
management capabilities; putting this sort of thing as an addon to VFS  
would let Gollem stay the file manager and have another app be the  
document manager without too much duplicate code).

Feel free to write something up in the wiki.
