I think is just matter of taste, everything has its advantages and
disadvantages. We (people) are different and have different needs, and I
think this is so well :)

It's only a prototype (mock-up), so it would be make no sense to provide
a package for common users. There is this applet prototype _only_ for
one reason - to present this ideas to the Ubuntu (desktop) developers.
Then this ideas may be used or not... It depends only on you...

It was also the initial point for me to analyze this subject and to work

Thank you for your comment!
