I have a few ideas that IMO would make Fedora more usable as a general desktop and developer platform:
What? :
1. have gnome-terminal shortcut on gnome panel (as firefox and evolution)
2. have gnome clipboard manager installed by default (glipper gnome applet)
3. have /usr/sbin and /sbin in PATH for regular users
Why? :
1. because gnome-terminal is the second most used [1] application on gnome desktop and this would make it more accessible for users.
2. because any desktop needs a good clipboard manager, it enhances usability enormously.
3. I personally need it only for some commands - like /sbin/ifconfig and /sbin/iwconfig are there any down sides to putting new /sbin and /usr/sbin in every users PATH variable? What do you think is this a good or bad idea?
Cheers, Valent.
