I'm completely agree with your vision.

Apps (we an icon on Launcher for that); Files and Folders (same situation that Apps); then, Banshee (Sound Menu or Launcher if we want), Web Browser (include on Launcher out of the box), Shotwell (same that Browser if we want).. I mean, from Ubuntu's icon we can access to Web Browser, Apps, Files/Folders, Banshee, Shotter... But, from Launcher we can access to the same apps, folder or shortcuts. We have 3 icons for access the same Dash with 3 different (unnecessary) filtering options. So: - Maybe it could be better eliminate Apps and File/Folder's icons from Launcher and integrate them on Ubuntu's icon. - Use Ubuntu's Icon for show System Information or another useful option/application. > - Have it be a trigger to recall the dock. This would be useful in the > case of a touch interface, so that the dock's autohide may be used on > touch-enabled devices (esp. ones with limited screen real-estate) This last idea it's great!
