What about including an button to shrink the Dash to non-full screen mode?
That means that it could remember the last setting and adjust to the user's
preferences, without needing a setting anywhere.

Unity, as of my last checking, only uses fullscreen for above
1280x800. I know this because my lapop uses 1280x720 and switched Dash

though. Make the option readily usable instead of hidden away.

Grouping them together would mean that the placement of the icons would
constantly change, hindering muscle memory.

Hello,
Let me suggest a mockup to improve navigation in the dash of Unity.
The current dash is as follows:

In this way a lot of space is wasted and you can see the names of the
sections overlap (do not know if it has already been reporte

That's a good idea. Though some thought needs to be given as to whether
the existence of a guest account should toggle the gconf key back to 1/2

Interesting point. With some tools like Ubuntu Tweak we can change between
our complete name, user name or nothing.
I think that it's very interesting point for discussion.

keeping the dash small would make sense, if another object could be
displayed beside it on the same level / layer, but that doesn't seem to be
the case, so it should rather utilize all the space
