[Usability]Feedbacks on GNOME 2 panel from Mdk 9.0 beta test

[Frederic Crozat <fcrozat mandrakesoft com>]

Hi all, 

I'd like to share with you some of the feedback we received during beta
tests of Mandrake 9.0 for GNOME 2.

We tried to keep an "almost" identical GNOME2 look as "original"
GNOME2.. This mean we keep the "menubar" + a bottom menu panel layout..
While a lot of people liked this layout (I think a majority of people
never realized it is inspired from MacOS..), many people complained they
couldn't move this "top" panel to other areas of the screen, like the
other panels.. 

I think it is clearly a problem with current panel configuration.. 
When trying to move the "menubar" panel, it should "morph" into an
"edge" panel.. In the same idea, there should be only one type of panel
to add, with the ability to modify its type using the "Preferences"
dialog..

WDYT ?
