Very cool. The good thing is that you already had the icon!

Some suggestions:

I would slim down the columns for priority and action to the minimum
required (the width of the labels, it seems)...

Also, in simple mode, only show the default runlevel, and thus, hide the
notebook tabs as well (this may require some reparenting magic, not that
difficult anyways). I think the backend already provides the default
runlevel in the XML.

Last, a general tab for advanced mode where to edit the default runlevel
and a couple of buttons to edit the rc.local and rc.sysinit shell files
would be cool. Ah, and a method to switch to a new runlevel.

Otherwise, really cool.

Greetings,
Arturo
