I can't see any problem it causes, or any harm in having it there. You say there are two many menu items in the Internet section. How many items are there in a default installation? 5 or 6? I don't think that's annoying. At least I can sleep well at nights and I have 17 items right now. > >> What if I remove Firefox? Or if someone sends me a link via mail?

I don't think the terminal will open gnome-bt. Is that a valid case for you?

I agree we should keep things simple, but I'm not sure this is a good idea. Regards, Emilio
