> I'm cleaning up the Mileage plugin in preparation for writing the 
> tutorial.  I need to force the user to configure the plugin on it's 
> first run to setup the expense and credit accounts.  Do you know how I 
> could programmatically call run_configuration_interface from the 
> initialiser?  The initialiser doesn't seem to have the parent_window and 
> the backend_account_fetch arguments as far as I can tell.
