Hello again, I know it's been quite a time but it's not too late. I still want to participate, and I have some more technical questions. I tried irc yesterday but only today I realized that was the wrong channel (duh!)
Ok, so the main question is: Will be the dock a containment or a applet, and why? The Techbase ideas page mentions a containment, I think it's the right choice, but I don't know exactly why (and Google want to know, i suppose). Making it a different containment will make a separation of the tradional panel and the dock more clear (as opposed to the new Windows 7 bar), and will possibly make the implementation easier (i'm thinking about parabolic zooming right know). The downside seems to be that every plasmoid (clocks, etc) needs a "third context mode": the desktop, the panel and the dock. This will bring more complexity to the plasmoid makers, and I cannot see any diferences between a clock in a panel and a clock in a dock. Anyone have any directions? I already started writing the proposal. There will be a first version tomorrow for your review.
