Ok, i would love to write one. I usually suggest Alt+F2 even to a new user
of linux. I think its a faster and cleaner way to
start what ever u want. At the end of the day its a matter of choice.

By the way how do I start writing an extension/plugin to gnome-shell.
I want a textual list of windows open as a plugin to the panel(a pure
verbose version of alt-tab) alongside  power, volume,.. etc. Any suggestions
on how to start?

Thanks
