Yes, I guess you are right. There is definitly the need to have a plugin system for all kind of things (deskbar-applet, tomboy) and this could of course also integrate the window chooser as a plugin. There was some discussion about this on desktop-devel-list. That would also mean that it should be possible to add a second "panel" for those who want it and to be able to put the panel add other positions (at least top and bottom). I hope someone can start on such a plugin API soon because I guess lots of people are willing to add plugins for gnome-shell.
