More comments  :)

Just because we ship whisker doesn't mean we have to set it up by default. 
It is a nice menu for a simple home desktop, but may not be the best thing 
for a more complex development setup. (artistic creation is closer to 
development than anything else) The old pannel menu is still there and 
settings could just as easy use that.... But, I wuld like to see other 
people's reaction anyway. If people feel whisker is nicer we can use it. 
Or we could even have more than one whisker (four) one for desktop, audio, 
graphics and video. To be compatible with other DEs, our standrd menu 
would have to be there somewhere :) as well.

Note: when testing whisker please check the use of the utility type 
submenus. There is an extra click needed and I think it only "inlines" the 
items.
