Inhttps://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1133, the reporter is asking
to add dockbarx, a panel applet for GNOME 2.
Being involved with GNOME, in my opinion this is a WONTFIX. There is no
GNOME 2 in Mageia, and GNOME 3 fallback mode might go away, plus the
panel API changed slightly (because it uses dbus now instead of bonobo).
No clue if dockbarx works with fallback mode btw.
Some users report that it does, both in gnome-panel and standalone mode.
What do others think?
My first reaction was, being a Gnome user myself, that if everything is
as stated, I tend to agree.
But following the links, as well as working under gnome-shell, and
having a stand-alone mode, it works with compiz (which will appeal to
some users), and there are ports under development for gtk3 and xfce.
It seems to be a sort of configurable icon-based menu system.
There is no feature list as such, nor proposed new features, so it is a
little uncertain what are it's limitations.
But why not ?
