I'm thinking that some of the apps with more complicated UIs could do with a
screenshot - so when we talk about "choose <foo> from the left-hand pane"
the screenshot gives more of an ah-ah! factor.

Thinking about it, we could well recycle some of the Dapper Flight
screenshots that've already been taken and are already in our SVN. I'll have
a look through them and see what we can see.

So, shots for the following:

- Add/Remove Applications
- Synaptic
- in the Adding Repos section, one or more of some stage of adding repos in
Synaptic

Some of the individual apps could get screenshots, if we've already got them
from the Flight shots or if people are inspired.

One that could do with a screenshot is Alacarte, the menu editor - again,
it's a multi-pane UI.

One of the whole desktop, maybe with one of the menus+submenus open, would
be nice for somewhere in the intro section.

My $0.02,

Brian.
