[Ayatana] Hovering to open items on the top panel

[Luke Benstead <kazade@xxxxxxxxx>]

I've just been thinking about the new indicators, and how there were
some complaints about it adding a click to get to stuff in the menus.
Then I thought, it would be pretty cool if all the menus on the panel
(including Applications, Places, System, Me menu, Indicators and the
calendar ) opened on hover. That would reduce pretty much any action
on the top panel to a single click (e.g. launching a program, opening
a folder, setting your status etc.)

It makes a lot of sense especially with complaints about hitting the
close button on maximized windows accidentally etc. if the
Applications menu appeared on hover that would remove that risk.

Any thoughts?

Luke.
