I don't know if we should remove &quot;More&quot; or not, but I agree with that
point. Even more, I tend to think that most of the applications I
installed manually go to &quot;More&quot;, and that is really illogic.

When I install Pidgin because I want to use it instead of Kopete, why
the logic in having &quot;Internet &gt; Kopete&quot; and &quot;Internet &gt; More &gt;
Pidgin&quot;.

At least, if we could track which apps were used ONCE, and put the
others in &quot;More&quot; first, that would be great.

Cheers,
R&#233;mi
