As you point out, it all depends on the perspective... I guess my "vote"
is against "desktop"-izing duplicity as a development direction...

Stepping back a bit, what would glib integration bring? Duplicity
doesn't seem like a very interactive type of application -- it seems
similar to ssh / scp / ssh-askpass, for example.

If we're talking merely about pausing / aborting operation based on
front-end requests, wouldn't SIGSTOP / SIGINT, or perhaps a very simple
"control socket" mechanism, do?
