Drop-down Applications Bar

Key: OFBIZ-2118
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-2118
Project: OFBiz
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: ALL COMPONENTS
Reporter: Bruno Busco
Hi all,
we have discussed several times about a new backoffice layout with drop-down
menus to have less crowded screens.
I am experimenting some solutions and I would like to show you what I came to
in order to discuss about it.
What you can see in the screenshots attached is based on an new visual-theme
but also on several changes in the decorators.
The idea is to have a breadcrumbs that is a drop-down menu also.
The leftmost Item is always "Home" and when the user hover on it the
applications menu is shown up.
Then the user can select an application and the application name is shown in
the second position of the breadcrumbs.
If the user hovers on it the selected application menu is shown and the user
can select an option that is shown in third position on breadcrumbs.
The idea is to have the breadcrumbs to incorporate both the applications menu,
the single application menu and the tab bars.
At the right ent of the same line of the breadcrumbs (in the white background
region) the actual screen name should be visible.
I think that this way of navigating offers to the user a complete view of all
applications as a whole.
For the moment I only attach screenshots to this jira because I need to clean
my code to make a presentable patch. I just want to hear if you think this is a
model that we can go through. If the community agrres on this that I will spend
more time to clean the code and submit a patch.
