Wasn't meaning to argue whether vfolders are better or worse, just noting that a common system could certainly address any issues you have, if we work on it and get it spec'd out. And also I think having a common system is more important than everyone being 100% happy. Compromise good. Implementing your own menu editor and such is nontrivial, and e.g. you will also have to update the gnome/kde docs and i18n to reflect the change, and keep forward-porting your patches as upstream changes. It doesn't make sense IMO. Speaking as someone who has modified upstream menu systems in a _smaller_ way than I understand you are suggesting. Though I'll admit I don't fully understand what you are planning. Havoc
