Ok, that's a pretty good goal I think. But the reason I never used "Start Here" is simply because I could never see it - I always run nearly every application maximized. The panel menu is always accessible and in the same place. I do think "Start Here" has a major advantage over the panel menu in that it's meaningful to someone new to our desktop - when I first switched to Fedora it took me a minute to realize that the Red Hat icon was actually a menu. Before I'd been used nearly stock upstream GNOME on Debian for years, with the "Applications" menu.
