        Yes, this is indeed a problem, gtk was not intended to small
screens, but I've read that it would be better in the next release...
I am just learning gtk now, so we'll have to wait on that :)

        I though about it, and came to the conclusion that 3 levels
would maybe be too much, because we would not have so many apps installed
at the same time to justify that.

        But since I don't see many apps dealing with the web installed
together I think that "Network/Dillo" is a better choice, because
the purpose of a top level menu entry would be to group apps, I think
"Network" does a better job , so one could have dillo, an instant
messaging client and a mail reader program grouped together.

        What do you guys think?
