Hi,
Currently it is possible to fire up a capplet multiple times. This
can be confusing for users [1]. It would be better if a capplet was
launched for the second time that the window of the currently
running applet was raised.
True most of the time certainly, although there are some fun corner
cases... like what happens if you have a local instance of the
Background capplet running, then run another one on a remote
machine. Should you get two instances then? Should the remote
instance control the local background or the remote one? And that
sort of thing :)
Cheeri,
Calum.
