I *love* this idea. Does that mean that this bug:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=62652 will be fixed? It's kind
of hard to tell developers to use status docklets when they don't
work... (Yeah, I know it's against sawfish for gnome 1, but I doubt it's
fixed in sawfish for gnome 2... I'll be sure to check on that)
