[Bug 1012247] Re: Integrate with system settings manager in Ubuntu

 

I think Screenlets used to do it in GNOME 2, using Unity it's just
application indicator.

However, it's not completely clear if Screenlets Manager should show up
among indicators, be in system settings or act as a regular program.
Technically Screenlets Manager does not indicate much, it's just a
launcher, which is not encouraged as an application indicator (see
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CustomStatusMenuDesignGuidelines). The same
question rises if we think about the system settings dialog, there's no
need to clutter it with semi-settings (as often happened in GNOME 2).

Having Screenlets as an application indicator seems to be kind of
intuitive though. Additional entry in desktop popup menu would be better
though (maybe), but I'm not aware if I can tweak it.

So it's an open question.
