windows users expect the "task manager" to be in the right-click menu on
the "task bar". in order to ease their transition and provide quick
access to a useful tool thats used relatively often, it would be nice to
have access to gnome-system-monitor in the xfce4-panel right-click menu.
thank you for your consideration.
Well.. i am neither the panel-developer, nor a debian packager... but...
ARE YOU INSANE?!!!!!!!11
sorry, I lost it there... let me explain:
First of all: there is the xfce4-taskmanager (dunno if it's in the
debian repos yet)
Second:
Xfce4-panel is an xfce-core application. Adding the
gnome-system-monitor launcher to it would be a death-sin.
gnome-system-monitor depends on a lot of gnome-libs. using it with
xfce kind of beats the purpose. (Running Xfce in < 50MB of ram is
really out of the question then)
Third:
The right-click menu has a clear purpose aswell:
1) on the panel, it is for adding and removing plugins.
2) on a window-button in the taskbar, it is for performing operations
on that window (like closing it)
Conclusion:
There is absolutely no good reason to add this functionality to the panel.
I hope i made myself clear.
Regards,
Stephan.
