</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Le vendredi 25 f&#233;vrier 2011 01:12:07, Michael Scherer a &#233;crit :
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; What need to be taken in account too is also the case
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; Internet =&gt; 5-7 apps.
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; Having :
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; Internet =&gt; 5-7 submenus =&gt; 1 app entry
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; is IMHO clearly suboptimal.
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; ( ie, 1 step more to get application , on a total of 3, that's a lot ).
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Does it happen ? In a default Mandriva KDE installation I already have
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; more than 10 internet applications.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> I do not use kde, but that doesn't sound good.
</I>&gt;<i> What are the entries ? Are all of them really needed ?
</I>
- akregator
- kaddressbook
- kmail
- network center (mandriva)
- kbluetooth
- kget (download manager)
- knetattach (= add a network 
- knode : newsgroups reader (unless I installed it manually, not sure)
- konqueror
- kontact
- konversation
- kopete
- korganizer
- kppp
- krdc
- krfb
- ktorrent (unless I installed it manually)
- firefox

And I agree that many of those will not be used by most people

&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; I prefer 3 quick steps rather than 2 long steps.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> This would requires some testing and measures to see which is faster,
</I>&gt;<i> which is more confusing. Fcrozat did some tests, but I think the report
</I>&gt;<i> were not published :/
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; And KDE gives you the
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &quot;recently used applications&quot; on top of the menu, so the extra step is no
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; big deal.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> Shall I remind that there is more than KDE in the world ?
</I>
No, because it suggests I forgot it, which is not the case :)
But you mean there is no such functionality in GNOME and other commonly used 
environments ?
