I agree, as long that it is implemented correctly.
The resulted BeOS Tracker menu was very fast, very smooth and elegant, but a 
similar one I saw on KDE's Kicker panel some time ago, was clunky and had 
the resulted windows overlapping a few pixels over the previous ones, 
resulting in a very weird experience, after having used BeOS' Tracker... 
KDE's effort never took off because it didn't feel right.

If someone wants to take the challenge and code this, I would highly 
recommend install BeOS on an old machine first (pre-1GHz, just to be on the 
safe compatibility side) and have a look on how Tracker worked (tip: 
download OpenTracker from sourceforge, which is the latest version).
