 *          backend will register.
 * @aliases:        Colon-separated list of aliases that can be used
 *          when referring to a backend by name.
 * @schemes:        Colon-separated list of URI schemes.  The #EShell
 *          will forward command-line URIs to the appropriate
 *          backend based on this list.
 * @sort_order:     Used to determine the order of backends listed in
 *          the main menu and in the switcher.  See
 *          e_shell_backend_compare().
 * @shell_view_type:    #GType for the corresponding #EShellView subclass.
 * @start:      Method for notifying the backend to begin loading
 *          data and running background tasks.  This is called
 *          just before the first instantiation of the
 *          corresponding #EShellView subclass.  It allows the
 *          backend to delay initialization steps that consume
 *          significant resources until they are actually needed.
 * @migrate:        Method for notifying the backend to migrate data and
 *          settings from the given version.  Returns %TRUE if the
 *          migration was successful or if no action was necessary.
 *          Returns %FALSE and sets a #GError if the migration
 *          failed.
 *
 * #EShellBackendClass contains a number of important settings for subclasses.
