I think it is useful to have a public Wish List.
So I put here some wishes adding two issues (item 4 and 5) to my
previous list.
1. Modern font handling with full unicode support (now based on old xorg
mechanism)
2. A mixer with volume control docked in the panel
(now one may use pavucontrol. This is also absolutely necessary
because it is not trivial without some tool,
such as pavucontrol, to
select microphone for communications (eg Skype); modern hardware
has typically two
microphones, one next to camera and a mic-in)
3. An easy way to easily select/modify/display keyboard state (now one
may use XXkb).
4. Add "multiple action support" and "default action" to the
FileManager. Right click on an item must provide an
"Open With" submenu to facilitate fast switch of the app that opens the
file. For example,
a pdf may Open with a default action (say acroread) but may also Open
with xpdf/okular/evince
IF these actions are installed as CDE actions. So I am not talking about
parsing the xdg menus
which people my not like. At least parse the installed CDE actions.
5. Fix the FileManager to scroll with the mouse wheel when the mouse is
inside the window
(now it scrolls only when the mouse is above the scrollbar).
6. An easy way to theme gtk2 and gtk3 apps to match CDE themes (this
includes major apps such as
firefox, thunderbird, LibreOffice, inkscape etc) (this can be extra
independent code). Number 2 above
can be partly bypassed if one manages to theme pavucontrol; but the
docked volume control is needed.

Mobile security can be enabling, not merely restricting. Employees who
bring their own devices (BYOD) to work are irked by the imposition of MDM
restrictions. Mobile Device Manager Plus allows you to control only the
apps on BYO-devices by containerizing them, leaving personal data untouched!
