And that's important for desktop and application integration, but I think you're stretching it's utility by suggesting it's appropriate for the icons on the panel. There is a certain amount of selection and policy involved in our choice of those icons, and that is more important than the false benefit of adaptability to configuration. *If* we decided that the purpose of those icons was to be an abstract launching interface to the applications that serve those objectives (like the items at the top left of the Windows XP start menu), then we'd do it - but all the other panel launchers work in a different way, and we don't have a way to communicate that difference in purpose at the moment. (This is one reason why we've talked about a 'most often used apps' list in the panel menus somewhere, perhaps in the applications menu, perhaps as an icon list beside it... But we don't have that yet.) - Jeff -- Ubuntu USA & Europe Tour: Oct-Nov 2005 http://wiki.ubuntu.com/3BT "If I had an inch for every penis size spam I'd recieved..." - Luis Villa -- ubuntu-desktop mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-desktop
