I agree with this, but while showing the launcher is generally not
harmful, the panel might be problematic in case of personal
notifications (email, tweets, messages) or events (like private
meetings); while I find that having the ability to quickly change some
settings might be useful.

So I think that in case of the panel, the content should have two
different policies: notification/events (invisible) and options (visible).
