 I ran apt-rdepends on libpanel-applet2-0 and weeded out full
 applications which happened to provide applets. The result follows:
 
 foo style:
   apt-watch
   bubblemon
   flink
   glunarclock
   gxmms
   netapplet
   netspeed
   teatime
 
 foo-applet style
   gtodo-applet
   imhangul-status-applet
   lock-keys-applet
   mboxcheck-applet
   netmon-applet
   quick-lounge-applet
   rhythmbox-applet
   seti-applet
   xpenguins-applet
 
 gnome-foo-applet style:
   gnome-cpufreq-applet
   gnome-netstatus-applet
   gnome-randr-applet
   gnome-swallow-applet
 
 foo-gnome style:
   verbiste-gnome
   oooqstart-gnome
 
 gnome-foo style:
   gnome-blog
   gnome-pilot
 
 foo-applet-gnome style:
   uim-applet-gnome
 
 Which is, not consistent. I don't like netspeed package name, which is
 too generic, while its upstream name is netspeed_applet. See
 http://mfcn.ilo.de/netspeed_applet/ .

Personally, I prefer gnome-foo-applet.  In the cases where the applet
name contains gnome or applet it can be re-arranged.

 apt-watch

  The next version of apt-watch will be neither Gnome nor a panel applet, and 
I don't want to go through renaming the package twice.

g-f-a is fine for new stuff, but please *don't* rename existing
packages, it just causes upgrade problems, and/or more dummy packages.
