Gnome A few weeks ago we published an article titled "The Great Mac OS X 10.4 Wish List", detailing a few personal wishes for the next version of OSX. Later I learned that quite a few Apple engineers read the article and so it felt good that the time spent writing the article was not just a voice in the void. A reader emailed me a few days ago asking me to do the same for other OSes and DEs. So here is my personal wish-list for a future version of Gnome. Please tell us about your own Gnome wish list in the comment section provided.

New GTK File Selector
by MB on Tue 9th Dec 2003 23:28 UTC

I have to agree that the beta GTK File Selector is bad; it's almost as though it was made as a joke. Who in their right makes "Frobnicate the file" an option?? Apart from the fact that it is a very uncommon word that means "tweak", the option itself doesn't make any sense to me; what exactly does it do? I think I see where they are going with the "bookmarks" idea, but it seems really out of place. Lastly, I hope that they don't have a single arrow and all of that blank space at the top in the final version.
