I think option 2 is best. Option 1 doesn't seem to be that great because of the above mentioned reasons like most used apps are already in dash, doesn't fit in well with the rest of the lenses etc.
I can see dash replacing the desktop if some areas are worked upon. 1) Disabled nautilus desktop 2) Force Dash to be always open + maximized but hide beneath all open windows. 3) Make super key to raise dash above all windows. 4) Dash home should not have categories but one single, large, continuous area to hold shortcuts to files and apps (no seperation). 5) Items should be rearrangeable using drag and drop. 6) Let users easily add shortcuts for files, folders and apps to home screen of dash by simply dropping on it. This way we can solve this problem, unify dash + desktop and this can work quite well as a home screen for mobile version of unity. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/885738 Title: Dash - Remove Dash Home shortcut icons To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/885738/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
