I proposed a small incremental change to make life better in the short term.
Not all that interested in grand plans for the future.

We have a bunch of applets related to hardware, and a bunch of 'third party'
applets being developed that will fit into a similar category. Note that I
suggested 'hardware' only if there wasn't a better name.
