Not really.  System.EnterpriseServices is basically a band-aid on top of
COM+.  The only reason it exists is that MS ran out of time and chose to
ship .NET without a new distributed Tx architecture.  Of all the things
in .NET System.EnterpriseServices probably has the shortest future ahead
of it - I can't see Mono really meaningfully implementing it as
ServicedComponent and friends are conceptually tied so closely to
COM+/Windows.
