The dash should display recent stuff.

 

I think the dash should be used to display recent stuff from your lenses. It should display recent email, recent comments on your blog, recently finished downloads, etc. I think it would also be nice if it only displayed the things you hadn't looked at. I don't know if it's currently possible, but it would be nice if it would order the sections themselves based on what's newest. Then, when something happens, you can very quickly react to it. For instance, when you download something, then can press super and enter to open the thing you downloaded. When you have opened that thing, it is removed from the dash, and the next time you open the dash, it will be sorted again based on the newest unseen thing.

This way, it will act both as a personal news page, and as an efficient way to get to stuff you want to get to.

What do you think?
