I'm a frequent user of it too, and find Alt-F2 to be the most convienent
way, especially for power users like me. I feel that Run shouldn't be
too prominant, as remembering binary names isn't something normal users
will bother doing (or should be expected to do), as long as a decent
menu is present. 

I don't like the idea of 'Old' and 'New' -> That only means the New menu
is not well enough planned to cope with a wide range of demands (is the
current menu really that exciting).

I like the task based layout. The actions need to be tightly trimmed
however.
