So perhaps the OS/2 approach isn't too bad after all? If there was some 
easy way to set a default application (not GNOME choosing the last 
started one, but the user deciding which one (s)he needs most), it would 
be clear what application is started by double clicking the sub menu. 
Then it could become a habit without further implications. None that I'm 
aware of, at least.
