In my setup, the auto-hide panel at the bottom only has the window list,
which I rarely (if ever) use. All the menus, direct buttons, applets,
etc. I use regularly are on the right-hand (non-auto-hide) panel.
The only thing I really miss with this setup is the clock. Some bright
person changed the clock applet so that if you add it to a vertical
panel, it writes the time sideways, which (a) takes up a bunch of space
and (b) is difficult to read.

I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
