I read that yesterday, not long after my post... :) I still have to read
some of it. The basic layout of the menus looks good but I'd suggest more
definitions of the first layer of submenus, to avoid too much clutter.
Utilities is already very full compared to some of the others, which, on my
machine, have only one or two entries.

I'd like people to be encouraged to supply icons with their programs, not
least because foal looks rubbish without icons...

I'll give it more thorough critique this weekend! ;P

Cheers,
