Hi all.
I realise that a release of Enlightenment-0.17 is some time off, but I've had an idea that I think would make an excellent feature: a 3D task switcher.
What I'm picturing is something in-between the 3ddesktop switcher at: http://desk3d.sourceforge.net/ and the Mac OS-X switcher that displays all running apps laid out on the screen at once ( OS-X has a few task switchers - I'm not sure how to trigger this one or what it's called, but my best friend uses it ).
The task switcher would keep in memory an image of what each app looked like when it was last visible, and when the users triggered the switcher, it would lay out all apps similar to the 3ddesktop switcher, or maybe as faces to a big spherical thing that you could use the mouse to roll around.
If I knew how to code C or C++ I would do it myself - I've already had a look at the 3ddesktop code, and unfortunately I don't have a damned clue what it's on about - Perl / PHP is my current limit.
Anyway, feel free to comment / flame. It's just an idea.
Dan
