Another thing I like to add with this is to make the Edit really edit and move 
the 'Edit+Rename' and 'Edit+Copy' also to this menu. I think it is much 
cleaner. Also operations can be added

The menu for systems can then look like:

Systems
  -----
  Add
  Copy    (or is Add similar a better name?)
  Rename
  Delete
  -----
  Change netboot
  Change profile
  -----
  Poweron
  Poweroff
  Reboot

Thoughts?

I meant the URLs to the list-style-images and buttons.

I also think it takes too much space with a 1024x768 laptop screen.
Maybe it can be moved above the menu in the sidebar.

I was also thinking about this once more system properties are being added. But 
I'm also not a CSS-guru.
