Actually, if we go with Mark's menu from DapperDesktopGoals, these entries
should appear in it. :-) But if we end up dumping the menu idea, I'd be
happy to put these in the theme.

Yeah, once we're closer to deciding this, I'll respin the theme with these
icons, etc.

Man I can't *WAIT* until we can do this. Dapper+1 I reckon. I would like to
fund this integration feature, if anyone can show they're prepared to do it.
