Greetings to the Aytana List,

I had a colleague point something out to me today; he had managed to accidentally delete the Session indicator applet from his panel, and was wondering how to restore the applet.  Two issues made this difficult for him:

1. There is no UI for restoring the panel to the default configuration.

Now is a good time to talk about configuration defaults and how to get back to them, after changing a setting manually. Every setting or option should have a "return to default" button somewhere close, either for the entire page of settings, or for the individual setting, as it is in compiz config settings manager (http://wiki.compiz.org/CCSM?action=""> .. note the brush for "return to default")

This way, even if i break something by customizing it, which should actually not be possible and would indicate a design flaw, i can still restore the default state which works.
