Im thinking about putting some gadgets into the background itself. These gadgets can have little activate/deactive switches on there too...
eg. clicking a little (C) will pop up an edje based calculator that can be dragged around... then clicking the (C) again will close it. Same thing can be done for a clock. While it would be good to have these as seperate modules or apps, its not needed and could learn to some more ideas in interactive backgrounds. Theres 1 problem to this idea and its this bug I found a while ago... http://bugs.enlightenment.org/show_bug.cgi?id=485 Where dragable items with a confine dont position correctly. This would be cool, but the obvious target for this theme is also beauty, so that idea would need to be considered I guess.
