Identical to the (indirect) use I have for the toolbar. I always browse the web or read e-mail in fullscreen, and require the desktop menu at random times during working with current fullscreen applications. With full maximization off, you have a space each side of the toolbar when windows are maximized, which is ideal for popping up a menu (yes, I use bbkeys (like Eric said) but I prefer not to have the desktop menu bound to a key combo). I also think the toolbar is practical. The minimalistic clock is no more and no less than required (so why fire up some beefy dockapp to tell the time). However, I am not against the SLIT at all. I use it on my desktop (be it only for one or two dockapps) and think it, and the toolbar should stay put. Just realised that this is practically an echo of the post above but I guess I'm not the only crazy person who has indirect uses for the toolbar :) Matt
