I think I will bring another feature to discussion. I use Launch.app 
(http://stepmaker.sourceforge.net/launch.html) since ages and it works really 
great. It has the ability to run commands as a different user, it has history 
for the last typed commands (which will be automatically displayed by typing 
the first characters), ability to start a program in a shell, also 
autocompletion and it's configurable (and written in WINGs). I know that the 
last release of it was years ago, but it compiles fine with the latest 
windowmaker sources and runs. The starting time of the application is equal to 
zero, so there is performance issue to the standard "Run"-Dialog.

So, why not adopt this little great app and make it the standard dialog or add 
some more functionality to the standard "Run"-dialog would be also great. 

Cheers,
 Daniel
