I believe many of the (hard)core GNOME hackers *use* Emacs for their 
work.  I don't know how many of them (if at all) are actually
interested in working on this.  Perhaps asking them directly (using
address@hidden, I believe) would be the best option?

Gnome also comes with gtksourceview widget which is used by stuff like
gedit (a [not so] simple text-editor provided by Gnome).  If someone
would take a closer look at it, it would probably be nice if they
could create an Emacs-widget which would be mostly (source-code)
compatible with it.

Emacs Bonobo component, OTOH, would allow Emacs to be embedded even
in programs like Mozilla (look for mozilla-bonobo project), and many
other Bonobo-aware 'containers' (Nautilus comes to mind).  Those are
the advantages of having Bonobo components.
