Hello everyone!

    I've got a brilliant idea about menu plugins (both applications menu
and directories menu): both can be done via LibFM. What advantages we'll
get from such move:

1) no own code to handle things, only widget representations (Gtk or Qt),
and you all know that code duplication isn't good to support;
2) handler (i.e. LibFM) not depends on graphic toolkit, so it can be very
easily implemented either for Gtk or for Qt;
3) easy implementation for drag&drop menu editing with LibFM 1.2 because
those menu-change operations will be implemented in it;
4) drop LXShortcut dependency - in LibFM 1.2 there will be an _external_
plugin to edit the desktop entry properties which depends only on Gtk and
LibFM (i.e. no libfm-gtk dependency), and it's easily portable to Qt.

    What do you think about it? I believe it's easy to implement and to
replace old fat LXPanel plugins in next LXPanel version. :)

    Cheers!
    Andriy.
