Hi Guys.
Thanks for your comments.
I'm not familiar with the Ayatana process, so I have an question:
Is any chance to improve the already opened applications icon look?
What is official process for this?
Who take the decision if the feature will be implemented or not?
The "Backlight toggle" idea
Symbolic icons are better used for functions or tasks within an
app/application/program (which I here use interchangeably). The back button

Who said the web browsers are broken? I use two to help stay organized. In
one browser, I always have bookmarks, saved passwords and sessions, t

ok, "default app" is a problematic concept.

I see.
While this has merit, I don't think it's entirely relevant. What if I
have two web browsers on my launcher? What if I don't have a default
specified. The concept of differentiating an app as default is broken.
There shouldn't be a default web browser, since it really doesn't
matter. Opening

Theming is an excellent approach towards gaining something from this topic,
yes.
It's just
This seems more like a theme question then, rather than a UI one. A
custom theme is better suited to solving the issue in your particular
case.
Removing all but one color from an icon by default is a bad idea,

The indicators work well monochrome because they were designed from
the start to be Monochrome, and include only simple shapes and
outlines. Regular icons do not work this way.
Perhaps an option to desaturate the launcher icons, or a Unity plugin
if we get a plugin framework. But using this as def

I should specify; my comment was in response to Frederik. Turning off the
backlight toggles by default I'm indifferent on, personally. I do
appreciate that it helps people with poor vision, but I wonder a better
solution is to include a Unity specific configuration tool in the repos or
on CD. That
Hi.
i don't want desaturate inactive icons.
Every icon has its own background square (backlight).
The idea is toggle it if it is inactive,
I tested it, and it works perfectly. Try it by yourself by using Ccsm.
It is really easy to implement this.
If you don't like this solution, I have several a
Desaturating inactive applications in the launcher is a bad idea. It
removes the ability to recognize different icons based on color. That would
leave only shape, which isn't enough on it's own, particularly if the
current icon set has many similar icons (like Faenza).

Hi.
For me it doesn't matter if the backlight, will be
enabled/toggled/disabled etc.,
but it does matter for my friend.
You even doesn't image how much work/time is needed to enable this
option, by such person which is not Linux expert.
I would like to be Unity be more user-friendly for such kind
I think with the backlight toggles mode active applications would be best
noticable with not just the backlight but also the shiny frame toggleing.
To me its still a bit visibily confusing the way it is now.

Thanks!
I'm wondering why such feature is not enabled by default.
Do we really need install ccsm, and manually configure/tune up Unity?

Hi.
My friend has a big vision impairment.
In every day computer usage he is using Windows 7 with big fonts. He is using
computer for checking the mail (thunderbird), web browsing (firefox), and
watching the movies (vlc player)
I convinced him to test the Ubuntu for two weeks, and tell me his
