I disagree. What are the use-cases here?
- User frequently changes resolution.
If you find yourself frequently changing resolution is there
xrandr-applet, which puts a drop-down list of available resolution on
the panel.
- Something about "power saving".
gnome-power-manager handles this automatically, and is configured via
the icon on the panel.

Hi all,
ok, see the thing is simple. The panel is too full to accommodate 2
more icons. In fact I'm of the opinion that we need to somehow open up the
right-click context menu so users should be able to put any
capplets/launchers they use quite a bit. A lot of people like me who come
from windows would be looking for things in familiar places. The modesetting
display capplet in notification tray, the whole of display properties so one
can change things on the fly, seeing a movie, seeing a .pdf etc. hence
atleast to me it makes sense. I find it extremely challenging to traverse
through 3 menus in order to get a simple thing done, hence if the display
capplet is there which has everything from brightness, contrast,
resolution-modesetting, themes etc. it would be pretty cool & convenient. I
have seen quite a few people in the various distros. who are interested in
this.
