Hi,
I'm working on a possible replacement for
gnome-default-applications-properties with a new, and I hope improved,
user interface. You can find a screenshot here:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=171872 (comments and
suggestions more than welcome). I'm imitating gnome-volume-properties
and vino-preferences, but a common set of gui directives to achieve a
common look and feel among capplets would be really useful.
