At the section of GNOME's wiki about 3.0 it is disccused how to give the
deskop a more "objected" feel to it - one big issue seems to be menus. A
suggestion on the wiki is that menus should resemble the menus in apples Mac
OS desktops -however someone apparantly thinks that users in general will
not like this. An alternative method could be as simple as assigning the
menu to the object on the proccess list - with a single right click the
regular menu available now would show + the programs own menu - this could
either be a simple entry containing all the top level menu items or the menu
could list normal system menu items, add a spacer (line or something) and
then include the top level menu items.
One issue with this is in the case of multiple windows per program - the
solution with the top level menu items being incased is perhaps the better
solution to this.
Another varation for this would be right click menus - is none has been
defined by the programme itself, simply apply the top level menu items to a
right click menu.
