Do a graphical UNIX way. We make a lot of different apps, where each single apps does exactly ONE thing. But this thing it does properly. E.g. I wanna do a phonecall, so I open dialer, click on the field on top of the buttons. Contact manager appears. The contact I selected gets communicated over DBUS onto the dialer. Which calls it.

In KDE we call this stuff Plasmoids or plasma widgets.
With Qt4 its already PITA to implement.
Please don't ask how hard it would be with enlightement...
But of course its a nice idea.
I guess daniele_athome has done some stuff into this direction.
With his mokosuit.
