Your idea is that applications are still running when i close their window?
And that they will appear in an app selector? Well, the idea is not bad, but
the tray does this already. When i close my app i can reopen it by clicking
the tray icon. My critic point is: Instead of developing an app selector, we
should drop the idea of the tray as a notification area and improve it
instead.

Why? I think it's a good place because a small icon doesn't take much place
and i can perform actions like changing settings in the context menu of the
icon.

Well i think the tray is one of the good thinks of Windows.

That should just be an example.

I'm sorry if that offended you, i didn't mean to.

I never said that.


> "so what?" etc.?


I just wanted to know why it is important that ideas come from a windows
culture.

I don't think so. You said: "This discussion is _very_ interesting, please
keep posting ideas." And i wanted to discuss it. Don't you think saying "I
don't like it" would be a little rude?
