Re: interapplication communication

"However, the overview as it is does not make a good application list.
This is because it devotes a microscopic bit of space to each
application and only provides one bit of dynamic information at a
glance: how many windows are open. That information is of no benefit in
practise over, for example, an indicator showing the number of new
messages. To get useful information about an application's status one
must exit the overview."

Where the application currently shows its name in metacity this would become application space, this could potentially solve this small problem.

"None of those happen right now. I'm not saying I have lost hope (this is

a constantly changing, super exciting work in progress, after all), but
I do hope there is some movement in their direction, or (naturally) in a
new and better direction :)"

"Simply flick the pointer, press the logo key, or use a
hardware button."

On the subject of hardware buttons I can't wait to see an activities button on my keyboard instead of a windows key.
However I am curious as to what kinda logo it would be.
