[Ayatana] Activities/Downloads Unity Place

[Owais Lone <hello@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Downloads
I don't know if something similar is already planned or not but I would love to see a "Downloads Place" to which all apps could push individual download status. Such a place can provide a nice and quick way to control all active downloads across apps including torrents.


Activities
This is much broader than the Downloads place, and the downloads place can possible reside as a sub-category of this place. An Activities place would show all ongoing tasks in the dash with ways to control or switch between them. For example, it could have a Active Windows/Apps section, Downloads section, Disk burning, File transfers etc.

This would result in three default places: Applications, Files and Folders and Activities.
