It's all about the accessor functions, really. They just aren't there. Good
news is that they might get in soon - if I'm not mistaken, GnomePrint is
undergoing a massive rewrite now. But who knows... I can't speak for their
team, but I'll make a request.

Getting gnome-print-preview to work will require a (good?) bit of work, and
it's on my list, but not first-and-foremost. And I'd also like to get the
gnome-print backed working too. Both would be really cool. But first, I want
to get the dialog eye candy working :-) I think that John Tunison got this
to work back-in-the-day. I'll take a look at his work before doing anything.
