That's pretty much what i was thinking although i wasn't thinking overwriting 
the iconbar entirely...

BTW - I've never used a mac so i don't know what they're like :)

Still not convinced of the point though, it's not really removing any clutter, 
just moving it to a different area of the screen.

As for the point of why it's even being discussed on enlightenment-users, i'm 
only replying to a post, i'm an enlightenment user and figured discussion 
forums were where things were discussed and ideas can be thought of and maybe 
born. Sure, maybe 95% of what people not directly involved with E development 
come up with may be nonsense or quickly discarded, but that doesn't stop the 
odd snippet planting a seed in someone's mind during design processes 
sometimes no matter how set in stone a current goal may be?

Anyway, night all...
