[Evolution] Wow! New Exec Summary feature. :)



Howdy, Ximianites!

After seeing the newer version of Exec Summary (in Jan 25 snapshot), it
inspired me to be greedy and make a bunch of requests for the component.
:)

1) Proxy support for the RDF summary.  Unless Evolution is using some
GNOME-wide proxy that I just don't know how to configure, I can't use
the RDF summary feature.  This would be a REALLY REALLY useful feature
for me.  Next to Palm in the RPM, there's nothing I want more in Evo. :)

2) A "Get Mail" button in the Exec. Sum. toolbar.  Now, if you add
auto-checking mail sometime in the future, the "Get Mail" button I just
asked for becomes trivial.  But since that doesn't seem to be happening,
I'll be greedy and ask for a Get Mail button.

3) Is there a way to get the Mail service to list out the Subject lines
for my new emails? That would be great! I tried clicking on the
configuring [?] button for the mail service, but it does nothing.

4) (nit warning!) Someone's probably noticed this already, but the title
bar for the Calendar Component is messed up in the new snapshot.

5) (MAJOR nit warning!) Also, the mini-icon that normaly displays in the
top-right corner (In the grey bar that lists your current component)
seems to show the top left bit of the large Executive Summary icon,
instead of the mini-icon that appears in the tree view.


And a bug I ran into Exec Summary: If I try to close the RDF summary
before it times out (remember, it couldn't get the summary because of
proxy), it totally hangs the Executive Summary AND my cursor. I had to
Ctrl+Alt+F1 and log in under the terminal to kill Exec-Summary :(

Thanks again! Keep up the astounding progress on Evo!
Tim
