While I appreciate the new features in Qubes 4, the lack of a graphical frontend like Qubes Manager is a step backwards, as Linux is always about choice. Can't someone program a very simple GUI which offers the following functions: 1) show all VMs with the option to hide: - internal VMs (I really hope to get this setting back from Qubes 3.2) - Template VMs - all VMs which are not running 2) indicate which VMs are running 3) offer the option to do the following actions on a VM: - start - restart - shutdown - kill - open preferences Nice to have: 4) maybe also: attach/remove USB and Block-Devices 5) show an icon if an USB/Block-Device is mounted I think that having the options 1 - 3 is perfectly fine, as this will make the interaction with VMs easier (also for newbies who come from any other OS). Please don't get me wrong, I like the new widgets as they offer additional options, but a central cockpit to do basic tasks is missing. I can live without additional features like performance metrics in Qubes Manager, but the basic tasks would be great. Can maybe someone outside of the Qubes Team program this?
