SUGGESTION: separate CLI from GUI to lessen amount of dependencies

[sindikat]

Hello, Andrew,

I would like to propose division in Bleachbit, so it will contain back-end with CLI and GUI frontend with Gnome features. It is because i don't use Gnome and am quite computer minimalist, so this will be useful for users of other DEs and WMs, than Gnome, like me. For example in Debian one must download libgnomecanvas, libgnomeui and libbonoboui, which are only about GUI.

BTW, are those cleaners for every single program hardcoded? If they are, why not to make the system modular, so these cleaners will be like plugins, written in some kind of scripting language, and user would be able to turn them on and off.

I use Debian Sid, Bleachbit 0.7.4-1, installed from repository.

Thanks.

Actually the cleaners are like plug-ins written in xml except for some (Firefox, OpenOffice and perhaps a few more.).
