3) Add menu for gnome-control-center to Configuration menu (I have
suggested this before), in which case it's a GNOME packaging bug
(control center should have needs="x11", not needs="gnome").

Of course, considering that default GTK font size is too small (IMHO)
and drakxtools etc use GTK, KDE users have too-small fonts in drakfw,
mandrakegalaxy, drakxtools etc, and have no easy way to change it.
