The main constraints is that any code additions can't make it significantly harder to understand and maintain the core positioning code - the constraint and positioning logic is pretty complex and I don't want to spend a lot of time fighting regressions. But other than that I'm quite open to adding hooks in Mutter. I think hooks that a shell extension can use are likely more interesting than complete behaviors that a user would turn on with a GConf key. Probably the hardest thing that would need to be addressed is a way for shell extensions to add new global keybindings. - Owen _______________________________________________ gnome-shell-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-shell-list
