Hi Björn,

Of course I don't want to harm any UX @ Ubuntu, however I used this
modification for a while and it seems useful to me because I don't
have to put all main icons to the Unity bar. Starting all main
application from one icon is very comfortable. I am sad because it is
not point of view at Canonical, but I understand your decision.

Best regards,
KAMI
