Re: [Ayatana] The top right thing



Maybe they should change the icon for the menu if it is to include System Settings. Hit Power button to go to System Settings? That's ridiculous!

I think it's just there because there is nowhere else to put it. I
think it's badly positioned though, everything else in that menu
related to ending or suspending the session in some way. Not only does
a system wide control panel not belong there but it's really annoying
having it positioned right where Shutdown was.

I just think now that Unity is being rushed for Natty, and it shows.
